between Switzerland and Japan.
Option a: you leave your watch on Geneva time and
date. You press push-piece
C
to adjust the time in
the second time zone so that the 24-hour hand is on
16 (4 p.m. Japanese time).
Option b: you travel to Japan and want your watch to
show Japanese time and date. You adjust the time by
turning the crown (in position 2) clockwise so that the
24-hour hand is on the 4 (4 p.m. Japanese time). Then
push the crown back in. The time shown in the second
time zone will stay at 8 a.m. (Geneva time: home).
IMPORTANT! You will not see any changes on the
dial when using the crown in positions 2 and 3.
