Settings
Models with a screwed down crown
To ensure even better water-resistance, some models are fitted with a screwed down crown. Before setting the time or date, you must first unscrew the crown to position
IB, before pulling it out to position II or III.
Important : After each operation, you must always screw the crown back down to ensure that your watch remains water-resistant.
Setting the time
Pull the crown out to position III and turn it clockwise or anticlockwise to set the desired time. Synchronise the small seconds hand at the 6 o'clock position with an
official time signal (radio/ TV/Internet) by pulling out the crown to the second notch; the hand will then stop. Once the time has been synchronised, push the crown
back down into position I (and tighten it back down on models with a screwed down crown).
Winding
Quartz watches never need to be wound.
Rapid date correction
Pull the crown out to position II and turn it anticlockwise until the correct date is displayed.
Speedometer (depending on the model)
The speedometer is used to measure the speed of an object which is moving at a constant speed. Start the timing operation and stop it again once you have covered
a distance of 1 km. The chronograph hand then points at a numeral on the tachometric scale, indicating the speed in km/h.
