NOTE: Your watch will have either a “pull-out“ or “screw-down“
crown. To determine this, gently try to pull out the crown to position 2.
If it does so, your watch has a pull-out crown. If not, use the thumb
and forefinger to apply mild pressure on the crown while rotating
toward you to release it. If it does so, your watch has a screw-down
crown.
CHRONOGRAPH OPERATING PROCEDURE
This chronograph movement features a 30 minute counter, one tenth
second timer, sweep seconds hand and date calendar. It enables
short times to be measured to an accuracy of one tenth of a second
in a 30-minute period.

CHRONO TYPE II
The Quick-Set feature allows the hour hand to be advanced without
advancing the minute hand and will also quick-set the calendar. It is
especially useful when traveling to different time zones, as the hour
hand can be rapidly advanced to set the desired time.
PULL OUT CROWN
NOTE: Never operate the crown when the watch is wet.
A. Pull the crown out to the middle position (2).
B. Turn the crown away from you until the date show-
ing is the day before the desired setting.
C. Pull out the crown to the fully extended position (3)
and rotate toward you. When midnight is reached,
the date will advance to the desired date. Continue
to turn the crown until the desired time is set.
Remember that the date advances at 12:00 midnight,
not 12:00 noon.
