Setting crowns have either two in and out positions ( \\#1- \\#2) for watches having no calen  \ndar; or, three in and out positions (\\#1- \\#2- \\#3) for watches having a calendar (date or day/date) .  \n2. Watches having a high water resistance of 100 meters or greater frequently have a screw crown. It is necessary to unscrew the crown before setting these watches and re-screw the crowns afterwards.  \n3. For additional information and complete operating instructions please visit our web site at [www.bulova.com. Search](www.bulova.com. Search) using the 5 or 6 character style number of your watch.  \nSETTING WATCHES HAVING 2 OR 3 HANDS ONLY (TWO POSITION CROWN) .  \nPull out the setting crown to position \\#2. Set the hands on time by turning the crown. Push the crown back in to position \\#1.  \nSETTING WATCHES WITH A PRINTED CALENDAR (3 POSITION CROWNS)  \nIN POSITION \\#1  \nOUT POSITION \\#3  \nINTERMEDIATE POSITION \\#2  \n1. Pull out the setting crown to position \\#3. Move the hands forward by turning the crown. Observe the date as the hands move past 12 o’clock. When the date changes it is midnight on the watch. Set the hands to correct A. M. or P. M. time. Push the crown back in to position \\#1  \n2. Pull the crown out to position \\#2 for calendar quick setting. The second hand will keep moving. Turn the crown in one direction to adjust the date to the desired number. Turn the crown in the opposite direction if your watch has a day of the week display. After set-  \nting, push the crown back in to position \\#1.  \n3  \nNOTE-Do NOT make this day/date adjustment when the time on the watch indicates between [9 P.M. and 4 A.M. as](9 P.M. and 4 A.M. as) it will become incorrect due to the engagement of the changing mechanism. It would then become necessary to readjust the calendar.  \nSETTING AND USING MOST BULOVA CHRONOGRAPH WATCHES  \n1. Set the timekeeping hands and calendar (if featured) following the preceding instructions.  \n2. Check that the chronograph counter hands are at the start position of zero or 12 o’clock. If not, to adjust the chrono seconds counter hand, pull the crown out to position \\#3, then push the button located at 2 o’clock repeatedly to correctly position this hand. Some chrono watches also have an adjustable 0-60 minute counter. If necessary, push the button located at 4 o’clock to correctly adjust this hand also. Once the hands are adjusted, push the crown back in to position \\#1.  \nSTART STOP RESET  \nA A  \nB  \n3. To use the chronograph, push the button at 2 o’clock once. The second counter will start counting. To stop the chronograph at any time, push the button at 2 o’clock once again.  \n4. To reset the chronograph to the starting position, push the button located at 4 o’clock once. 4  \nSETTING WATCHES HAVING A CALENDAR DISPLAYED BY HANDS ON A SUB-DIAL  \nIf your watch has small sub-dials numbered 1-31 and showing the days of the week, then proceed as follows:  \nDATE  \nDATE CORRECTION  \nTIME CORRECTION DAY CORRECTION  \n~~ ~~ CROWN  \nOUT POSITION \\#3  \nINTERMEDIATE POSITION \\#2  \nIN POSITION \\#1  \n1. Pull the crown out to position \\#3. Move the hands forward by turning the crown. The date changes at midnight and the day of the week will change after the date. Keep moving the hands forward UNTIL THE CORRECT DAY OF THE WEEK SHOWS ON THE DAY HAND. Then set the hands to the correct A. M. or  \nP. M. time. Push the crown back into position \\#1.  \n2. Pull the crown out to position \\#2 to quick set the date. The secondhand will keep moving. Turn the crown slowly to adjust the date to the desired number. Push the crown back in to position \\#1.  \n5  \nFOR THE AUTOMATIC SELF-WINDING MECHANICAL WATCH:  \nIt must be wound at least six or seven times before you wear it. After that, your daily activity should wind the watch sufficiently to keep it running at night when it is not being worn. If your normal daily activity is not sufficient, occasional supplementary manual winding may be necessary.
