Day phase
The day phase, shown by the picture of the sun for day
time and the night sky for night time, is linked to the
time of day. It can therefore be set in the same way as
the time after pulling the crown out one click (1).
Moon phase
To adjust the moon phase without risking damage to
the movement, it is essential to position the hands in
the lower part of the dial between 3 and 9 o’clock.
Position the full moon at the center of its aperture by
pressing the corrector X on the side of the case several
times using the Zenith Time Tool. Using a moon cal-
endar, identify the date of the last full moon and count
the number of days between then and the present day.
Press the corrector the same number of times.
Example
It is September 28, 2010. The last full moon was on
September 23rd. The corrector must be pressed 5 times.
The moon phase is now set.

Time
Pull out the crown one click (1). If your watch displays the
date, ensure that you are setting the time during the correct
part of the day, i.e. before or after midday. Turn the crown
in either direction to set the hands to the time required.
On the stroke of the time signal, press the crown back in.
Important note: for movements with a 24 times zones
function (4037 & 4046), corrections to the time should
never be made in a counterclockwise direction between
11 p.m. and 1 a.m.
Simple date & Month date & Large date (2 discs)
To change the date without risking damage to the move-
ment, it is essential to position the hands in the lower
part of the dial between 3 and 9 o’clock.
Pull out the crown two clicks (2) and turn it until the
required date appears. For models displaying the month,
scroll through the dates as far as the month required and
then set the date. The month changes at midnight on the
31st. Push the crown back in.
Day of the week
Use the ZENITH Time Tool to press the corrector Y until
the required day appears. Do not use a pen or any other
pointed object.
Hint: To ensure you set the correct time - before (a.m.)
or after (p.m.) midday - with regards to date change, we
advise that you set the date to the day before the desired
date and then move the hours forwards until the correct
date and time, a.m. or p.m., are obtained.

Example : it’s Thursday, the 26th of May.
1. Day of the Week
Pull the crown out one click (1). Turn the hands clock-
wise to set the day of the week. Then, place the hands
in the lower part of the dial (for example at 7.25) the
day before the one you desire (Example: Wednesday if
you want Thursday). Press the crown back in.
2. Date and Month
Pull the crown out two clicks (2) and scroll through
the dates until the required month appears (Exam-
ple: May) then set the date one day before the one you
desire (Example: the 25th if you want the 26th). The final
adjustment is made through the hands by setting the
time clockwise. Once you pass through midnight, the
day and date will change. Finally, you will be able to set
correctly the time before (a.m.) or after (p.m.) midday.
The watch is now set according to our example: Thurs-
day, the 26th of May.
