The crown has 3 positions:
1. Normal position (wearing position): when the crown is
positioned against the case, the crown ensures that the watch is
water-resistant.
Occasional winding: if the watch has not been worn for 60 hours
or more, wind it up with the crown in position 1.
2. Time zone and correcting the date: pull the crown out to
position 2. Turn the crown forwards or backwards; the hour hand
moves forwards or backwards in one-hour jumps. The date jumps
forwards or backwards each time the hour hand passes midnight.
Push the crown back to position 1.
NB: when changing the time zone backwards, it is necessary
to move the hour hand back past 7pm to ensure the date
changes.
3. Time setting: hours – minutes – seconds. Pull the crown out to
position 3. The second hand will stop. Turn the crown forwards or
backwards. Synchronise the seconds by pushing the crown back to
position 1 to coincide with a given time signal.
