ADJUSTING CHRONOGRAPH HAND POSITION

●The “0” position of the CHRONOGRAPH 1/10-second hand differs depending on the

models.

NOTES ON OPERATING THE WATCH

●The CHRONOGRAPH minute hand moves correspondingly with the CHRONOGRAPH

second hand.

●The hands move quickly if the respective buttons are kept pressed.

TIME/CALENDAR SETTING

●Do not set the date between 9:00 p.m. and 1:00 a.m. Otherwise, the date may not

change properly.

●When setting the hour hand, be sure to check that AM/PM is correctly set. The watch

is so designed that the date changes once in 24 hours.

* Turn the hands past the 12 o’clock marker to determine whether the watch is set for

the A.M. or P.M. period. If the date changes, the time is set for the A.M. period. If

not, the time is set for the P.M. period.

* Some models have the “0” position of the CHRONOGRAPH 1/10-second hand at 3

and 9 o’clock sides of the small dial. In that case, check if the hand is level with its

both ends pointing to those “0” positions.

●When setting the minute hand, first advance it 4 to 5 minute ahead of the desired time

and then turn it back to the exact minute.

English

●While the crown is at the second click, do not press the buttons. Otherwise, the

CHRONOGRAPH hands will move. To reset them to “0” position, see “ADJUSTING

CHRONOGRAPH HAND POSITION” on page 4.

CHRONOGRAPH

●While the chronograph is counting, do not pull out the crown to set the time. Otherwise,

the chronograph operation cannot be made.

●The CHRONOGRAPH 1/10-second scale and hand differ in design and shape depending

on the models.

* Some models have the CHRONOGRAPH 1/10-second scale graduated on the upper

half of the small dial and the hand which is so designed that both ends can indicate

the elapsed 1/10 second. In that case, read the marker on the scale where either end

of the hand points to.
