Setting the MAIN dial and winding
Unscrew the Main Crown by turning it anti-clockwise from
position 0 to position 1 without pulling it.
1) Winding: with the Main Crown in position 1, wind manually by
turning the Main Crown clockwise until you feel little resistance.
After this, the mechanism will be automatically wound by wrist
movements spinning the rotor on its axis. The watch will stop if not
worn for long intervals.
2) Date: Date: gently pull out the Main Crown to position 2 and turn
it clockwise in order to quickly set the date. Do not change the date
between 8pm and 4am. The date also changes when the hour hand
goes past midnight.
3) Time: gently pull out the Main Crown to position 3. The second
hand will stop moving. Then turn the Main Crown anti-clockwise in
order to set the time (hour and minute hands move forward).
When finished setting the time/date, gently push the Main Crown
back to position 1 and then gently push and screw it in completely
into position 0.
