Precautions concerning water resistance
A watch’s water resistance can be affected by changes caused by the gaskets drying out, or an accidental shock to the crown. To help maintain your watch’s water resistance, we recommend rinsing it in soft water after any contact with seawater and having its water resistance checked once a year by an approved LONGINES Service Centre. In no circumstances should you open your watch yourself.
IMPORTANT! Never activate the time-setting crown and/or push-pieces when the watch is underwater, and ensure that the crown and push-pieces are pushed in or screwed down before any immersion in water.

SETTING THE TIME – GENERAL INFORMATION
A Crown- B Hour hand
- C Minute hand
- D Small seconds
- E Date window
Hour, minute, seconds and date display.
Screw-in crown
Some LONGINES models are fitted with a screw-in crown which must be unscrewed
before setting the time, correcting the date or winding. After setting the
time or winding, return the crown to position 1, then push it back in and
screw it in firmly in order to ensure the watch’s water resistance.
Setting the time
Pull the crown out to position 3 when the seconds hand (situated at 6 o’clock)
is at 60. Turn the crown either way to the desired time display. As soon as
the time is synchronised, push the crown back into position 1.
Do not attempt quick correction of the date between 8 p.m. and 3 a.m.
Quick date correction
Pull the crown out to position 2 and turn it forward to correct the date.
While you are doing this, your watch continues to operate and so the time does
not need resetting. The date needs correcting after any month with fewer than
31 days. Push the crown back into position 1. The date changes when the hour
hand passes midnight.
