Precautions concerning
Precautions concerning waterresistance
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 water immersion.
The water-resistance values indicated in metres are equivalent to the overpressure applied under standard ISO 22810

Hour, minute, seconds, date and moon phase display.
Screw-in crown
Some LONGINES models are equipped with a screw-in crown, which must be
unscrewed before setting the time, correcting the date or winding, by turning
it anti-clockwise. After making the settings, return the crown to position 1,
then push it back in and screw it in firmly to ensure the watch’s water
resistance.
Setting the time and stop seconds
Pull the crown out to position 3 when the second hand 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.
Avoid any quick date correction between 20:00 and 03:00.
Quick date correction
- Pull the crown out to position 2, and then turn it forward to the desired date display. During this operation, your watch will continue to run; no time adjustment will be required. The date needs to be corrected after every month shorter than 31 days.
- Push the crown back into position 1.
- The date will change when the hour hand passes midnight.
Moon phase correction
- Pull the crown out to position 2, and turn it backward until the full moon appears in the centre of the moon phase window.
- Find out the date of the last full moon, and turn the crown backward through as many revolutions as the number of days elapsed since the last full moon.
- During this operation, your watch will continue to run; no time adjustment will be required. Push the crown back into position 1.
