Hello,
I have 1960 Seamaster with date - No 166.002, Caliber 562. (In fact it is
described as "562(1)" whatever that means?)
My question is about how to change the date. I know that some of these
watches allow you to turn the hands back and forth from 9 to 12 to move the
date forward. Presumably others you simply wind forward to the right date!
Is it safe for me to experiment by turning the hands back and forwards to
see if the date changes? Or is there any way of knowing if the watch has
this facility before I try it?
Many thanks as always.
