How do you set the time on a Cartier Ballon Bleu?

　　The Cartier Ballon Bleu collection draws its inspiration from humankind's dreams and attempts regarding flight, carrying our fantasies and eternal yearnings for the mysterious and beautiful outer space. However, some people who have purchased a Cartier Ballon Bleu watch are unclear about how to adjust the time. Below, the editor explains how to set the time on a Cartier Ballon Bleu, hoping it will be useful to you.

　　Method for setting the time on a Cartier Ballon Bleu

　　1 First, unscrew the central crown of the Cartier watch. Once unscrewed and without pulling the crown out, rotating it upwards winds the mainspring. For a new Cartier watch or one that has been left unused for a long time, it is recommended to wind it about 30 turns to build up a power reserve, thereby preventing stoppages or inaccurate timekeeping caused by insufficient physical activity.

　　2, pull out the crown and turn the hands two full revolutions, stopping at the 7 o'clock position. Why do we do this? Because adjusting the following functions on a new Cartier watch while it is not running will cause it to jam. If it has not been worn for a long time, we recommend following this procedure to avoid damaging the movement. Then, pull the crown out to the first click to set the date to the 1-31th. If you encounter a month with only 30 days, simply manually advance past the 31th.

　　3, pull the crown out to the second click to adjust the time.

　　4, the top-right pusher on the Cartier watch adjusts the day of the week, displayed on the subsidiary dial at the 9 o'clock position. The day function advances 7 time per revolution or 14 times as a multiple of 7. That is: once in the morning, and once in the afternoon.

　　5, the bottom-right pusher on the Cartier watch adjusts the month, displayed on the subsidiary dial at the 3 o'clock position. The month advances 12 time per revolution. If it is a calendar function, it advances 31 times per revolution.

　　6, the subsidiary dial at the 6 o'clock position on the dial is a 24-hour display, which rotates along with the hour hand when setting the time, so this function operates on a 24-hour format.

　　7, avoid adjusting the time and functions of your Cartier watch between 23:00 and 5:00 in the evening to prevent damaging the internal components.

　　Follow the above steps to set the date for the Cartier Ballon Bleu collection timepiece.。
