GMT Operation

GMT WATCH INSTRUCTIONS
Featuring the NH34 Automatic Movement

 

🕒 Crown Positions

  • Position 0: Fully pushed in — manual winding

  • Position 1: One click out — set date and GMT hand

  • Position 2: Two clicks out — set main time (hour & minute hands)

 

🔧 Manual Winding (Position 0)

Turn the crown clockwise 20–30 times to wind the mainspring.
✅ Wearing the watch also keeps it wound via the automatic rotor.

 

📅 Setting the Date & GMT Hand (Position 1)

  1. Pull the crown out one click

  2. Turn counter-clockwise to set the date

    • Do not set the date between 9PM and 3AM to avoid damage.

  3. Turn clockwise to adjust the GMT hand in 1-hour jumps

    • Use the 24-hour scale to set your second time zone 

 

⏰ Setting the Time (Position 2)

  1. Pull the crown out two clicks

  2. Rotate to set the main hour and minute hands

  3. Push the crown fully back in to resume timekeeping
    ✅ The second hand will stop while setting—great for syncing to the second.

 

🌍 How the GMT Works

  • The main hands show your local time

  • The GMT hand shows a second time zone on the 24-hour scale

  • If your watch has a rotating bezel, you can track a third time zone by aligning it with the GMT hand

 

💡 Quick Tips

  • Winding: If your watch stops, wind it before setting the time

  • Date first, then time: Always set the date before setting the time to avoid misalignment

  • Avoid setting the date between 9PM–3AM

  • Water resistance depends on your case design—check individual specs
