These chronograph models feature a minute
counter (up to 30), tenths-of-a-second counter
which becomes an hour counter after 30 minutes,
and small seconds hand subdials, and center-
mounted chronograph seconds hand; some have
a Big Date feature. They can be used to time
an event up to 29 minutes and 59.9 seconds in
duration to the nearest 1/10 of a second; or up to 9
hours,
59 minutes and 59 seconds in duration to the
nearest full second.
TIME/DATE SETTING
To set the time:
1. Pull crown out to position 3; watch stops.
2. Turn crown in either direction until hands
indicate desired time.
3. Push crown back in to position 1; watch restarts.
To adjust the time to the exact second:
1. As soon as small seconds hand S reaches
<<60>> position, pull crown out to position 3;
watch stops.
2. Turn crown to move hands and set time, making
sure date changes at midnight, not noon.
3. Move hands slightly ahead of exact time, then
slowly turn crown counterclockwise to align
minute hand with correct minute marker.
4. Take an accurate time signal (from a radio
news station, for example). When audible tone
signals exact time, immediately push crown
back in to position 1; watch will restart, now set to
the exact time.
To correct the Big Date (quick mode):
Only for models with Big Date feature at 12 o’clock
(see
Figure A
)
1. Pull crown out to position 2; watch continues to
run.
