How do I set the date?Updated 7 months ago

Field Watches: Gently pull the crown out to the first position. The SW221 movement features a quick-set date function, and this first position is used to adjust the date. Turn the crown clockwise to change the date. Like many movements, it’s essential to avoid setting the date when the time on the watch is between 8 PM and 4 AM. This period is when the date-change mechanism is active, and adjusting the date during these hours could potentially harm the movement. Once the correct date is set, push the crown back to its original position and screw it down to secure the watch and maintain its water resistance.
