The purpose of this page is to show how we can easily correct hand alignment issues with the Calibre S.

For this procedure, have the watch in the normal ‘time’ mode, the second hand should be ticking.

Simultaneously press and hold the top (A) and bottom (B) pushers. This will cause the hands to move to where the ‘brain’ of the watch considers zero to be. If all the hands are already at zero, push in the crown (C) to finish calibration, otherwise move to the next step.

The bottom pusher (B) is used to cycle through which hand you need to adjust, The top pusher (A) will adjust that hand.

Note, when adjusting the 1/10 & 1/100 sub-dials, holding the top pusher makes the hands move downwards. Momentarily pushing them will make them move upwards, it will be clearer when you try!
 
Now we have finished the calibration process, press in the crown to save the settings.

Setting The Time

Now set the time and calendar by pulling the crown out to the handset position. The centre second hand serves to tell you what setting you are adjusting, as engraved on the back and pictured below.

Same as with calibration, button (B) cycles through the different settings and button (A) adjusts it.
