Hey guys quick question.......I usually wear my Avenger as my everyday watch. Just now I decided I wanted to wear my Chronomat, however the time is not set. It is now 9 oclock.....What are the rules in setting the time at this hour? I can adjust the time forward but not backwards? Or I can't adjust the time at all?

Thanks

You can adjust the time whenever you want. What you can't do is change the date between 8 PM thru 3 AM. You would need to adjust the time forward until it is after 3 AM so you can then set the proper date.

Not true.

You can adjust the time forwards whenever you want.

Adjusting time backwards between 8pm and 3am can have just as significant an impact as using the quick set date.

Good to know . The manuals only mention to not set the time between 8pm-3am they do not
specify if the restriction is for backwards or forward.

Yes...that is what I meant, but I guess it did not come across clearly. Thank you for clearing it up Roff.
