ADJUSTMENTS FOR
MECHANICAL HAND-WOUND
MOVEMENTS
Your Mille Miglia watch is equipped with
a mechanical hand-wound chrono graph
movement. When fully wound, it has a
power reserve of between 40 and 60 hours,
depending on the model. If the watch has
stopped, wind it manually before wearing it
by turning the crown forwards.
Crown in position 1 –
normal running and manual winding
The watch is wound by turning the crown
clockwise. It is fully wound when the crown
locks. Do not attempt to wind a mechanical
watch beyond the locking point, since this
might damage the movement. It is prefer-
able to wind it once a day.
Crown in position 2 –
setting the time
To set the time, pull the crown out to posi-
tion 2 and turn it up to the desired hour.
Then push the crown back in to position 1.
REMARKS AND WARNINGS
– Some models are equipped with a
screw-lock crown. Before making
a ny adjustme nts or a ny ma nual
winding, unscrew the crown in a
counter- clockwise direction.
– After each new operation, the crown
must at all costs be pushed or screwed
(depending on the model) right back in
against the case in order to guarantee
the watch's water resistance.
– These operations must not under any
circumstances be performed in water,
since this might damage the movement.

FUNCTIONS

The following functions are available,
depending on the model.
Chronograph function
The chronograph hand enables you to
read off the seconds, by referring to the
graduated scale around the dial circum-
ference. The chronograph is operated via
two pushers :
Upper Pusher [M] : start / stop
Lower Pusher [N] : resets the chronograph
hand and the hour and minute counters.
Split-second function
Its split-second function makes it pos-
sible to measure intermediate or split
times. On demand, the additional
" split-second " hand stops for as long as
it takes to read off a time before " catch-
ing up " with the other seconds hand. To
perform the adjustments, the chrono-
graph must be in operation.
