A - Unscrew the crown and pull out to the second click (3). The second hand moves to the Zero position it has memorized and stops.

B -Press button 4 for 2 seconds or longer and release. The hour and minute hand will move forward, then reverse, then forward. The second hand makes one full rotation clockwise.

C - The All Reset is now complete.

Zeroing the hands
After all reset the hands and calendar must be "Zeroed" to provide a starting point for setting the watch.

A - Unscrew the crown and pull it out to the second click (3). The hands will move to their last memorized "Zero" position.

B - Move the crown to the right (clockwise) to make the hands move in the forward direction, move the crown counterclockwise to move the hands in the reverse direction.
Quickly moving the crown several clicks at a time in the desired direction advances the hands rapidly.

C - Once the hour and minute hands are "Zeroed" at the 12:00 position the second hand and date can be "Zeroed".

D - Pull out the crown to the first click position (2).

E - Turn the crown to the right (clockwise) to move the second hand around the dial until it is "Zeroed" at the 12:00 position.

F - Turn the crown left (counterclockwise) to adjust the date until the date reads "1".
Note: turning the crown rapidly in the counterclockwise direction advances the date rapidly. Turn again in either direction to stop rapid date advance.

G - When all hands and the date are set push the crown in all the way (you don't have to screw it down) to have the watch "memorize" the zero positions.
Note: memory recording of the zero position takes about 1 second. When it has been recorded the second hand will begin a 2 second "hitch" movement. Do not pull the crown out until after the 2 second "hitch" movement has begun.

H - After adjusting the zero positions proceed to adjusting time and calendar.

Setting the Time

A - Unscrew the crown and pull it out to the second click (3). The second hand will rapidly advance to it's last memorized zero position at 12:00 and stop. If it is not zeroed perform the "Zeroing the hands" adjustment outlined above.

B - Set the time by turning the crown clockwise to move the hour and minute hands forward, counterclockwise to move in the reverse direction.
Note: if you move the crown rapidly (two or more clicks at a time) the hour and minutes hands will move rapidly. Move the crown one click in either direction to stop the rapid advance.
Note2: When the hour and minute hands reach 12:00 am, the date changes. The hands will pause until the date change is complete, then resume operation. Make sure that the correct Am/Pm time setting is observed or the calendar will be out of sync.

C - When the hands are set to the correct time push the crown all the way in and the watch will start.

Setting the Calendar
This watch is a perpetual calendar type that automatically changes year/month/day, including leap years, once it is set correctly.

How to read the month/year.
The months are represented by the second hand pointing to the hour markers on the dial. Dec = 12:00,Jan. = 1:00, Feb. = 2:00, etc.
The 12 hour markers represent the 12 months of the year.
The years (or more correctly the number of years since the last leap year) are represented by the amount that the second hand moves past the hour marker.
Example:

A - Unscrew the crown and pull it out to the first position (2). The second hand will move to the year/month position last memorized and stop.

B - Turn the crown clockwise, a click at a time and the second hand will move to indicate the year/month position (years passed since the last leap year).

C - Once the year/month is set turn the crown counterclockwise to set the date in the window. When the crown is moved quickly in this direction the date will advance continuously and stop automatically after reaching 31 days. Turn the crown one turn in either direction to stop rapid date advance.

D - Complete date setting by pushing the crown in and screwing down. The second hand will catch up to the correct time as timekeeping resumes.

Adjust for a different time zone without resetting the watch.

A - With the crown in the normal position (1) press button 4 and quickly start to turn the crown. This will allow the time to be corrected an hour at a time by turning the crown. Adjust the time difference by turning the crown right or left as required.

B - 30 seconds after pressing button 4 or the last movement of the crown the watch will return to normal timekeeping.

Note1: Turning the crown 2 or more clicks at a time will not allow rapid advance of the hands in this mode.
Note2: When the hands pass 0:00am the calendar will adjust the date to the next day.
Note3: To cancel the time difference move the crown in the opposite direction. When the hands pass 0:00am the calendar will adjust to one day less. Since the calendar wheel cannot move backwards it will advance through 30 days until it is at the correct date (this will take 2-3 minutes).

Special Indications of the hands

Insufficient Charge Warning
If there is insufficient charge in the rechargeable battery the second hands will move clockwise in 2 second intervals. The watch will keep correct time during this indication. Place the watch in sufficient light to recharge it. The charge warning will start about 2 days before complete discharge.

Time Setting Warning
When the watch has stopped due to insufficient charge the second hand will move back and forth over a 2 second arc to indicate that the time needs to be set. After the time has been set the second hand will move normally unless there is Insufficient Charge as outlined above

Calendar Setting Warning.
If the calendar is not set correctly the second hand will move clockwise in 5 second intervals. Readjust the calendar as outlined above to correct this warning.
