- Setting
the Time
Turn the crown clockwise or counterclockwise to move
the mode hand to the time (TME) position.
Pull crown out to the second position (two 'clicks'
or steps out); second hand moves to the '0' position
and stops. (If second hand stops at any other position,
you must perform an ALL RESET and ZERO POSITIONING
ADJUSTMENT as shown in the instruction manual)
Turning the crown changes the position of the hour,
minute and 24 hour hands electronically: turning the
crown clockwise moves the hands forward, and counterclockwise
moves the hands backward. Rotating crown quickly causes
the hands to move in a continuous or rapid set manner.
Turning the crown one 'clock' in either direction
while the hands are in the "rapid set" mode
will cause the hands to stop.
Be sure to set time to correct a.m. / p.m. by referring
to the 24 hour hand. After setting time, push crown
in to finalize time setting.

the Calendar
The calendar is set while the mode indicator is
in the time (TME) position. Pull the crown out to
the first position (one step or 'click' out). The
sweep second hand becomes the month indicator and
moves to an hour marker (1-12) to indicate the month
number. EXAMPLE: If the sweep second hand moves to
hour marker 4, it would indicate that the month is
April. At the same time, the function hand moves to
a position on the upper right dial to indicate whether
the year is a leap year or 1,2 or 3 years after a
leap year. The '0' position on the function dial indicates
a leap year and leap year +1, +2 and +3 are indicated
by the three markers following the '0' position.
To correct month number, press and release button
B until sweep second hand indicates the correct month
number. To correct the leap year indication, press
an release button A. To change the date, turn the
crown counterclockwise 1 'click' to move the date
forward one by one. Rotating the crown counterclockwise
quickly will cause the date to 'rapid set' or change
continuously. To stop the advance, rotate the crown
forward or backward 1 'click'. Push crown in to finalize
the calendar setting. Once calendar is set correctly
and the watch is kept charged up, automatic operation
of the month, date and leap year indication will continue
until the year 2100.
