Mid size Yachtmaster question

Have a quick question. When you set the time on a mid sized Yachtmaster, which way do you turn the crown to set the time forward? Thanks.

The mid-size watches use the Ladies watch movements.. the newer movements, such as the 2231, set backwards from the mens..

You rotate the crown counter-clockwise to move the hands clock-wise

This one is an A series. Not sure what calibre should be.

Thanks again Larry. Two time now you helped me get this watch.

It is a 2235, confirmed. It was even serviced in Jan.

A, or not Mik, the 29 and 35mm YM all set the oposite to the full size mens 40mm.
As Larry said, you will need to turn CC to turn the hands CW.

Understood. I was worried I just got a fake is all.
