TeeJay Posted September 20, 2007 Report Share Posted September 20, 2007 Silly question, I know, but something I was wondering about. Obviously with Omegas and Rolexes, pulling the crown out freezes the sweep of the second hand. This doesn't happen with PAMs though. Other than letting the watch run to a stop, and, re-setting the main hands, and then winding it so the second hand is right, is there any other way of actually zeroing the second sweep? I like my watches to be accurate, but with my 111h, am not too concerned about it's 'to the second' accuracy, as I don't know if it's even possible to set that timing aspect... Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. You might try setting the minute slowly backwards though. That sometimes helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, I had a feeling there wouldn't be, but thought I'd at least ask to see if there was some 'magic trick' to getting it to work [Edit to add] I just tried slowly adjusting the minute hand backwards, and the second hand actually started tracking backwards, so I've managed to synchronize the time. My only concern, is that I've made the watch do something it wasn't supposed to do Edited September 20, 2007 by TeeJay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
