Re: What is the correct way to set the date on a Caliber 11? *PIC*
In Response To: Re: What is the correct way to set the date on a Caliber 11? ()

: Neatly summed up in this post:

: For Heuers, how far you have to turn it back depends on whether
: it's a Calibre 11 or 11i - not sure whether your Hamilton would
: be the improved movement or not, but turning it back to 10 would
: work either way.

Thanks for finding this for me. I searched, but didn't find it. Based on the problems the 11 movement had associated with date change, I wanted to make sure I set it correctly.

The Hamilton versions of these watches used both the 11 and 11 i versions of the caliber and were purportedly made by Heuer for Hamilton. The case and bezel design are very similar to the Autavia.
