3. Ersteinrichtung
3.1 Uhrzeit einstellen
- Ziehen Sie die Krone bis zur Position 2 (ganz außen) heraus. Der Sekundenzeiger bleibt stehen.
- Rotate the crown to move the hour and minute hands clockwise until the desired time is set. Ensure AM/PM is correctly set if your watch has a 24-hour indicator.
- Drücken Sie die Krone zurück in Position 0 (Normalposition), um die Uhr zu starten.
3.2 Datum einstellen
- Ziehen Sie die Krone bis zur Position 1 (erster Klick) heraus.
- Drehen Sie die Krone im Uhrzeigersinn oder gegen den Uhrzeigersinn (je nach Uhrwerk), bis das richtige Datum im Datumsfenster erscheint.
- Drücken Sie die Krone wieder in Position 0.
Note: Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can interfere with the automatic date change mechanism. If you need to set the date during this period, first set the time outside this range, adjust the date, then reset the time.
3.3 Chronograph Hand Reset
If the chronograph hands (sub-dials) are not aligned to the zero position when reset, they may need calibration:
- Ziehen Sie die Krone auf Position 2 heraus.
- Press pusher A (top pusher) repeatedly to advance the chronograph second hand to the 12 o'clock (zero) position.
- Press pusher B (bottom pusher) repeatedly to advance the chronograph minute hand to the 12 o'clock (zero) position.
- Once all chronograph hands are aligned, push the crown back in to position 0.
4. Bedienung Ihrer Uhr
4.1 Verwendung des Chronographen
The chronograph function allows you to measure elapsed time up to a certain duration (e.g., 30 or 60 minutes, depending on the movement).
- Start: Drücken Sie den Drücker A, um den Chronographen zu starten. Der Sekundenzeiger des Chronographen beginnt sich zu bewegen.
- Stop: Press pusher A again to stop the chronograph. Read the elapsed time from the chronograph second and minute sub-dials.
- Zurücksetzen: Nach dem Anhalten den Drücker B betätigen, um alle Chronographenzeiger auf ihre Nullstellung zurückzusetzen.
- Zeitaufteilung (falls zutreffend): Some chronographs allow for split-time measurement. Consult the specific movement instructions if this feature is present.
4.2 Verwendung des Tachymeters
The tachymeter scale on the bezel is used to measure speed over a known distance (e.g., 1 kilometer or 1 mile).
- Start the chronograph (Pusher A) at the beginning of the measured distance (e.g., a mile marker).
- Stop the chronograph (Pusher A) when you reach the end of the measured distance.
- The number indicated by the chronograph second hand on the tachymeter scale represents the average speed per hour for that distance. For example, if the second hand points to '60' after 1 minute, your average speed was 60 units per hour (e.g., 60 mph or 60 km/h).
