If you cannot find your watch model (or movement) in this watch, you can try to determine your A. LANGE & SOHNE winding mode. You should choose the combined winding mode (CW+CCW) and minimum turns per day (TPD). Then put the watch in the automatic watch winder and check the accuracy of the time displayed by the watch after a few days. If you fall behind, you need to increase the number of TPDs by one level.
A.Lange & Söhne Watch Time Adjustment Method
- To prolong the life of the watch, many watches gradually jump in the period around midnight, generally, it is normal to complete the jump before 2 am, and some watches complete it before 4 am.
- Do not adjust the date between 22:00-2:00 (some watches are at 20:00-4:00), which can easily cause damage to the watch and incorrect calendar jumps.
- In the case of jumping the calendar during the day, you can adjust — if you find that the calendar jumps around noon during the day, the time of the watch will generally become faster and slower by 12 hours. For example, if it is 11 am now and the watch is 11 pm the day before, just turn the hour hand of the watch once and the afternoon will become morning. This situation is relatively common, with about 50% probability.
Generally, the watch needs to be clockwise in time adjustment, not counterclockwise. Turning the watch counterclockwise is easy to cause deviation in the direction of the watch pointer (the quartz two-pin type should be turned counterclockwise). Please pay special attention. If you wear it with the left hand and adjust it with the right hand, the forward rotation is clockwise.
The design of the watch is different, and the adjustment method is also different, but when adjusting the watch with the calendar function, you need to consider the factors of morning and afternoon.
Can I Always Wind my Watch Manually With the Crown?
It’s okay to do this once in a while, but not too often—especially if your watch has a screw-down crown.
Firstly, with crown winding, the gears and other parts of an automatic movement will wear out faster, as will the screw-in crown system, as it is not designed for frequent use. Self-winding watches should be worn for at least eight hours a day to make the most of their power reserves, so rather than letting your automatic watch's power reserve drain, invest in a simple automatic watch winder.
