Quartz: Changing the Date and Setting the Time



1 Normal position
2 Rapid date change
3 Time-setting

Changing the Date
(applicable only for watches with date indication)

In order to adjust the date rapidly, pull the crown out to position 2. Then, depending on the model of your watch, turn the crown forwards or backwards until the desired date appears in the window. The date changes as the hour hand passes midnight. During this operation, your watch will continue to function and so will not need to be reset. Do not change the date when the watch is showing a time between 10 pm and 2 am. The watch’s automatic date change mechanism engages during this time period and the movement could be damaged. After finishing your changes, always push the crown back in to position 1, in order to preserve your watch's water-resistance.

Recommendation

Your MICHEL RENEE watch is powered by a battery with an average life of approximately 2~3 years. In order to make the battery last longer, pull the crown out to position 3 whenever you do not intend to wear your watch for a while.
