Re: Autavia 1163V "Viceroy": Question on Stem

Stewart-

Thank you for the Autavia update and quick response...very helpful. I will enjoy this watch, and will be a frequent visitor to the terrific website on all things Heuer!

: Hi,
: Welcome to 'Team Autavia'. Very sorry to hear about your father, he
: had great taste.

: It's fully automatic, but you can wind it clockwise in it's regular
: 'pushed in' postion. Turning it anti-clockwise does nothing in
: this position, a bit like pedalling a bike for power and back
: pedalling does nothing.

: The crown pulls out to only 1 position. In this position you can
: set the time and the date. Move the time forward until the date
: changes, then rewind the time to about 10 o'clock position (you
: will hear a faint click) then move the time forward again past
: the 12 o'clock position, the date will advance again. Repeat
: (back to 10, forward to 12) for advance the date again, etc etc
: etc.

: Enjoy it

: Stewart
