To set your watch correctly, proceed as follows:
– Always wind the watch fully, to the point at which you feel a distinct resistance in
the crown.
– Pull out the crown to position 1.
– Turn the crown to the left to advance the date display in steps. Set the display to
yesterday’s date.
– Pull out the crown to position 2. This will stop the movement. To set the time accur-
ately to the second, it is best to stop the movement as the seconds hand passes 60.
– Turn the hands forwards until the date display changes to today’s date. The hands
will now be positioned between 12 midnight and 1 a.m.
– Now turn the hands forwards beyond the approximate time. Then move them back-
wards to the correct time. If you are setting the watch in the afternoon, you must
turn the hands past 12 (noon) again.
– Push the crown back to position 0 to start the movement.

The power reserve display on the side facing the movement is divided into 8 days with
continuous display. The marking in the area of the last day tells you that the power
reserve is about to expire. You should then wind the watch, since the precision can
be reduced in this area.
