Any guide for dummies how to set time on 15400?

Hey guys,

I got the 15400 as my first luxury watch ever.

I got no idea how to set time, though it doesnt seem such a hard task, reading a bit about AP I keep coming across the statement that it is much more sensitive than Rolex or similar, so Im very scared to harm the watch.

Does anyone know about a step by step guide to set the time on a 15400?

Im curretnly walking around with my watch not set. Haha

It’s a watch, not an egg!
Have you never had a watch begore or one with a crown before?
Have you opened and read the user manual yet?
I’m surprised your AD didn’t spend time showing you and explaining how an automatic watch works.

You shake it up as many times as you want to move the minute hand.

IE- if you need to advance the time two hours, you shake it 120 times.

There should be a downloadable pdf on the AP website with info about the 3120 movement. If you do some googling you will find it.

Treat it with respect, not cotton wool gloves and it will see you just fine.
