Sub C Crown Problem
I've had the watch for 11 months now but lately when setting the time the crown doesn't want to pull out past the notch where you set the date. It will not move outwards so I push it back in and try again when it usually works. Is this a known thing in general?
Thanks in advance. |

Sometimes you may need to turn the crown cw or ccw for it to pop out. That's normal.

It has poped out as it lets me set the date so turning it further would affect the the date I require.

I push it back to winding mode, turn ccw, then back out.

In the date position, rotate the crown very slightly CCW. Then put slight CCW pressure as you pull it out to the time setting position.
