3-POSITION CROWN
Simple function
In this function, with the crown stem in position 1, push-piece
is used to switch the chronograph status between START
and STOP.
After START is pressed, the counter hands will show the mea-
sured time. The 1/100th of a second counter hand will not turn.
When STOP is pressed, the 60-second counter hand will stop
running. The 1/100th of a second counter hand will move to
show the one hundredths of a second value.
To measure another time, press push-piece
counters to zero (RESET). All the hands will quickly return
clockwise to their start point, and the chronograph will switch
back to watch mode.
Time setting and stop seconds
To synchronise the watch with an official time signal
(radio, telephone, etc.), pull the crown stem out
to its furthest position 3, when the small seconds hand
is at 60, then push the crown fully back in again (pos. 1) at
the time signal.
The calendar changes every time the hour hand passes
midnight.
Minute and seconds adjustment
Pull the crown out to its furthest position 3; the 3 counter
hands will move to 12 o'clock. Turn the crown stem to correct
the hour and minute hands. Turn the crown stem either way to
correct the minute.
Then push the crown fully back in again (pos. 1).

Changing the time zone and the date
Pull the crown out to the intermediate position 2. The hour hand
will make one-hour jumps, enabling quick time zone adjust-
ments by turning the crown. The hour hand can be moved in
either direction without affecting the minute and seconds hands.
Turning the crown through 24 hours will change the date. The
crown stem can be turned either way. Then push the crown fully
back in again (pos. 1).
