CHANGING THE TIME
ZONE
When traveling to a different time zone, you merely
need to actuate the time-zone selection pusher
10 o'clock until the city that represents the new time
zone is in the 12 o'clock position.
Three movements take place each time you press the
pusher: the hour hand moves clockwise in one-hour
steps while the city disk
both advance counterclockwise by one position.
These corrections do not influence the motion of
the minute hand .
Note: The city disk does not move as long as you remain
in the same time zone, but the 24-hour disk, connected to
the dial train, will gradually rotate counterclockwise. The
interaction of the city disk and the 24-hour disk allows
you to read the time in any of the world's 24 time zones
whenever you wish.

CHRONOGRAPH
The chronograph is started and stopped with the
pusher
at 2 o'clock. It is reset to zero with the
pusher
at 4 o'clock, whether the chronograph
has been stopped or is running. When you press
the pusher
at 4 o'clock while the chronograph is
running, this triggers the flyback function: all the
chronograph hands fly back to zero and instantly
start a new measurement. Conversely, if you first
stop the chronograph by pressing the pusher
2 o'clock, actuation of the pusher
cause the chronograph hands to return to the zero
position and stay there. When resetting the chrono-
graph to zero, make sure you press the pusher
4 o'clock firmly and squarely in the middle.
Note: If the chronograph function is not needed, the chrono-
graph hand can continue to run just like an ordinary sweep
seconds hand. This will not cause premature wear of the
clutch mechanism or reduce the power reserve.
