GMT TRAVELER OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
QUICK SET INSTRUCTIONS IF YOU’RE AN EXPERT
After an extended period of non-use, the movement must be set in
motion by winding the crown clockwise in its normal position
approximately 20 times.
Flush-
The crown is fully screwed-down. The watch is completely sealed
and the movement protected.
(1st Position)
For Manual Winding- Unscrew the crown
counterclockwise until it completely disengages from the threads. Once
there, begin to wind the crown clockwise about 25-30 times away from
you, do not go back and forth with the crown. This is only required if you
have not worn the watch for 1-2 days.
(2nd Position)
Setting the GMT and Date- Unscrew the crown
counterclockwise until it until it completely disengages from the threads
(the winding position). With your thumb and forefinger slightly pull on the
crown to reach the 2nd extended position. To set the GMT function,
wind the crown downwards, the GMT hand will click.
To set the date, wind the crown upwards (towards 12 o’clock) until you
reach the appropriate date. When completed, lightly push and screw the
crown tightly back into place.
(3rd Position)
Setting the Time- Unscrew the crown counterclockwise
until it pops out from the side (the winding position). Extend the crown
past the 2nd position, which is fully extended from the side. To set the
time, wind the crown clockwise or counterclockwise until you reach the
appropriate time. When completed, lightly push the crown back into
position 1 and gently screw the crown in clockwise direction, then tighten
it again until you feel some resistance.
Do not force! You must always
ensure the crown is fully tightened before any use in water.

PLEASE BE ADVISED: engaging the date function
when dial hands are between 8pm - 2am can cause
serious damage to the calendar gears of the internal
movement as the watch gearing will already be
aligning itself to change the date. It is therefore vital
to avoid adjusting the calendar or moving the time
backwards during this period. Such damage is not
covered under warranty. You must advance the time
past midnight before you can set the date again.
