INSTRUCTIONS
QUARTZ MOVEMENTS
To Set the Date with Push Crowns: Pull out the crown one stop. Turn the crown clockwise
until the day/date displayed is the day before the actual date you want to set. (For example, if
today's date is the 2nd, advance the date wheel to read the 1st). Then pull the crown out to the
second stop and rotate the crown advancing time forward, adjusting the hands until you reach
midnight. Continue to rotate the crown to your current time. If it is in the afternoon, you will need
to rotate the hour hand past 12:00 noon, the midday position. After setting the date, be certain to
push the crown in fully to ensure water resistance!
To Set the Time with Push Crowns: Pull the crown out fully (2 stops); turn in either direction
to set. Push in to restart the watch. After setting the time, be certain to push in the crown fully to
ensure water resistance!
To set the Date or Time with Screw-Down Crowns: Setting the date and time with
a screw down crown watch is the same as above; however to pull out the crown you must first
"unscrew" the crown by turning it in a counter clockwise direction until the crown releases from
the threaded tube. After adjusting the date and/or time, push the crown in and screw down in a
clockwise direction until the crown is sealed in a tight position to ensure water resistance.
To use the Diving Bezel (uni-directional): Rotate the bezel counter clockwise until the
0 on the bezel lines up with the minute hand. Track elapsed time by checking the minute hand
against bezel numbers, not the dial numbers.
Note: For night timing, set the 0 on the bezel at the desired number of elapsed minutes from the
minute hand position. Although the numbers will not be counting down, the 0 mark is the point to
which you are moving. Diving bezels are meant to turn counter clockwise only. Never force the
bezel to rotate clockwise.
Note: Not all Luminox watch models will have a diving bezel.
