Notes:
• Do not try to perform stopwatch operations while the crown is pulled out either to
the first or second click. If you try to press a button, you might accidentally cause
the crown to rotate and change the current time or day setting.
• If the starting positions of the stopwatch second hand and 1/20 second hand
become misaligned, use the following procedures to adjust the positions of the
hands so they point to 12 o’clock when the stopwatch is reset.
To adjust the positions of the stopwatch hands

second hand and 1/20 second hand.
2. Pull out the crown to the second click.
3. Press A to move the stopwatch second hand.
4. Press B.
5. If the stopwatch 1/20 second hand is aligned correctly, proceed to step 6. If the
stopwatch 1/20 second hand is also misaligned, press B to move the stopwatch
1/20 second hand.
6. After making the adjustments you want, push the crown back in to its normal position.
• Note that pulling the crown out also stops the timekeeping second hand. After
performing the above procedure, you should also adjust the timekeeping setting.
■ For a watch with an elapsed time bezel
Rotate the elapsed time bezel to align the
minute hand.
After certain amount of time elapsed, read the graduation on
the elapsed time bezel which the minute hand points to.
The elapsed time is indicated.
• Some water resistant models are equipped with a screw lock
crown.
• With such models, you must unscrew the crown in the
direction noted in the illustration to loosen it before you can
pull it out. Do not pull too forcibly on such crowns.
• Also note that such watches are not water resistant while
their crowns are loosened. Be sure to screw the crowns
back in as far as they will go after making any setting.
