NB: the hands should be reset to their original position before the 
chronograph is used:
–  Resetting/zeroing of the 30-minute totaliser hand: pusher B and 
crown in position 2.
–  Resetting/zeroing of the 60-second totaliser hand: pusher A and 
crown in position 3.
–  Resetting/zeroing of the 1/10th of a second hand: pusher B and 
crown in position 3.

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.
