How to Set the Date & Time

Best to move the minute and hour hand to the 7 position — do not adjust the day or date when the minute or hour hands are between 9pm and 3am — to avoid damaging the date function. Roll slowly and smoothly.

To Set the Date: Pull the crown out 1 click and slowly and gently roll clockwise.

Day: Pull the crown out 1 click and roll anti-clockwise - roll very slowly and gently.

Time: Pull the crown out 2 clicks, roll slowly to the desired time, then gently push the crown back in.
