WINDING POSITION
With the crown in the winding position (0), you can also wind the automatic movement by hand. A few
revolutions of the crown are enough to start the movement. However, it is recommended to wind the
watch by turning the crown through approximately 20 revolutions as this will ensure maximum preci-
sion.
DATE SET TING
If a month has fewer than 31 days, you will need to set the date manually to the first day of the following
month. Release the screw-in crown and pull it out to position 1. You can now set the date by turning
the crown to the left (rapid adjustment). You should not use the rapid-adjustment function between
8 p.m. and 2 a.m. because the movement automatically advances the date during this period
and the switching mechanism could be damaged.

TIME SET TING
Pull out the crown to position 2. This will stop the movement. To set the time accurately to the second,
it is best to stop the movement as the seconds hand passes 60. Now move the minute hand a few
minute strokes beyond the time to be set. Then position the minute hand by moving it gently back-
wards until it is exactly above the correct minute stroke. This ensures that the minute hand begins to
move immediately when you restart the movement. To start the seconds hand, push in the crown to
position 0. When setting the time, please be aware of the date change, which always takes place at
12 midnight. If this change has already taken place at 12 noon, you must move the hands forwards
by 12 hours.
Important: Although the watch is water-resistant in positions 0, 1 and 2, the crown should always be
screwed in again for normal use to ensure the stability of the seal and to protect the winding mech-
anism.
POWER RESERVE DISPL AY
The power reserve display is divided into 7 days with continuous display. The winding mechanism
winds the watch continuously while you are wearing it, and you can follow the process on the power
