REMARKS ON DISASSEMBLING AND REASSEMBLING

Cal. 5J32A

For disassembling and reassembling, be sure to use the universal movement holder.

Hands

In case of conventional quartz movements, the hands should be installed immediately after the date
changes by turning the crown. Cal. 5J32A uses a new calendar mechanism that changes without
perceptible clicks, and therefore, the procedure below should be followed to install the hands.

• How to install

1.

Pull out the crown to the second click, and
turn it counterclockwise.

2.

Check if the date numeral moves in the
calendar frame. When it starts to move,
turn the crown slowly, and stop turning it
when the numeral stops moving.

3.

Install the hour hand exactly at the 12
o’clock position.

4.

Install the minute and second hands in the
same manner as you would do for a
conventional quartz movement.

• Setting position

Refer to the illustration at right.

Note: Handle the hour wheel guard spring

carefully lest its spring portion should
be deformed.

· “A” portion in the illustration at right has

elasticity and is made tight in order to be set to
the guide tube. Make sure that “A” portion is
set securely in position.

· Hook the spring portion “B” of the date dial

guard to the tube as shown in the illustration
at right.
