Hi all...getting ready to set the time on my new Klaus Da Vinci PC...I will be waiting until after 2 AM. The manual instructions are a bit vague. Set time first to 4:40...OK, I can do that. Pull crown out to position 1 (first crown stop after winding position), rotate crown slowly, and calendar will advance in steps. Set yesterday's date, also making sure month and year are correct
How do I make sure month and year are correct? I don't want to mess with the watch for fear of advancing too far, and it has to go to IWC service. Any suggestions? Thanks Alan

Whew -glad you got this right. It advances slowly, so if you go to far you usually can just put the watch away and wait for time to catch up in a few days once the watch stops.

Good morning Michael. The watch was at "April 2011", so I just took my time advancing day by day till I got till August 17, 2012...then I advanced to the next day by moving the hands forward...I was indeed worried about overadvancing! My worst fear was that I would see 2013 in the year window! Best regards, Alan
