INDING THE WATCH
Your watch has an automatic mechanical movement with a 3-day power
reserve (72hours), shown by the indicator (E) at 5 o'clock on the dial. If the
watch is stopped for a long time, it is recommended that it be rewound with a
few clockwise turns of the winding crown (B) in the initial position after raising
the lever (A) of the device protecting the winding crown.

ALCULATION OF DIVING TIME
Line up the luminous index of the bezel with the minute hand at the start of the
dive. Having done this, the duration can be read during the dive and at the end of
it.

2. Set the correct time.
3. Push back the winding crown (B) to the initial position (0) and close the
lever (A) of the device protecting the winding crown.
For a rapid change of the time, pull out the winding crown (B) to the first click
(position 1). In this position, the hour hand (C) moves forwards or backwards
in steps of one hour without moving the minute hand (D).
S
ETTING THE DATE
Your watch has a gradual date change mechanism, a process which takes
about 3 hours to complete: from 10 p.m. to 1.00 a.m., with a margin of ± 30
minutes. This particular method of changing the date is inspired by the
mechanical tradition of Swiss watchmaking and it allows the date to be
changed in both directions, moving it either forwards or backwards. To set the
date indicated, proceed as follows:
1. Raise the lever (A) of the device protecting the winding crown and pull out
the winding crown (B) to the first click (position 1). Turn it clockwise or anti-
clockwise moving the hour hand (C) forward until the correct date appears
in the date window located at 3 o'clock.
If the date changes when the hour hand (C) goes past 12, 12 corresponds
to midnight, otherwise it corresponds to midday.
2. Push back the winding crown (B) to the initial position (0) and close the
lever (A) of the device protecting the winding crown.
Note: your Panerai watch features the rapid change of time that allows to
move the hour hand (C) forwards or backwards in steps of one hour and to
change the date in both directions, moving it either forwards or backwards.
R
EPLACING THE BUCKLE
The screwdriver supplied with your watch enables the buckle to be replaced
easily. It is recommended that the buckle be replaced by an Authorized
Distributor or a Panerai Service Centre.
