Using the minute repeater function:

Push the slide at 9 o’clock to activate the minute repeater; 
when you release the slide, you will hear three different 
chimes using two notes sounding the hours, quarter-hours 
and minutes.

Wait 30 seconds after the last chime before activating the 
minute repeater again.

Warning: Do not set the time while your timepiece 
is chiming.

Using the chronograph function:

Start the chronograph by pressing the chronograph push-
button on the crown at 3 o’clock; press the same push-button 
to stop the chronograph and to reset the chronograph to zero.

Using the minute counter function:

Start the chronograph by pressing the chronograph push-
button on the crown at 3 o’clock. 60 seconds later, the 
minute counter hand instantly jumps by one graduation. 
The minute counter is stopped and reset to zero by pressing 
the push-button on the crown at 3 o'clock.

Using the split-second function:

Start the chronograph by pressing the chronograph push-
button on the crown at 3 o’clock. 

To measure a second time, press the push-button at 2 o’clock 
to activate the split-second function. The split-second hand 
will stop to measure the first time. To reset the split-second 
hand, press the push-button at 2 o’clock.

Important information on caring 

for your timepiece:

Avoid extreme magnetic fields (magnets, loudspeakers, 
etc.), major shocks (such as may be sustained during 
manual labour, the practice of extreme sports, etc.), as 
well as prolonged contact with moisture and exposure to 
sunlight. The timepiece is not water-resistant, but is dust-
resistant.

Avoid operating the four major functions (minute repeater, 
chronograph, split-second and perpetual calendar) at the 
same time, since this may cause the timepiece to stop.
