End portions of the hammer and the intermediate fly-back lever are located outside the column during starting condi- tion. When the second button is depressed, the end portion of the intermediate fly-back lever slips among the columns of the pillar wheel (as shown in Fig. 18), and the force is not transmitted beyond the hammer. On the other hand, the our hammer does not move be- cause the pin located on its tip strikes the intermediate hour record- ing wheel stop lever. At this mo- ment, momentum of the second button is absorbed by a springing characteristic of the jour fly-back lever. Safety action is exhibited by integration of the above-mentioned operations.

Clockwise — Date correction When turning the crown to the right (clockwise), the correcting gear moves to the date dial side and interlocks with it, thus date is corrected. Force transmission is through crown + clutch wheel —~ setting wheel + cor- recting gear ~ date dial 2. Counterclockwise — Day correc- tion When turning the crown to the left (counterclockwise), the cor- recting gear moves to the day star with dial disk side and inter- locks with the intermediate wheel for day correction, and day is corrected. Force is trans- mitted through crown — clutch wheel — setting wheel + cor- recting gear + intermediate wheel for day correction ~+ day star with dial disk Third position of crown (setting time) The setting wheel lever complete moves to the minute wheel side by action of the setting lever with axle, and the intermediate setting wheel interlocks with the minute wheel hand is set correctly. Simultaneous- ly, motion of the setting wheel lever complete is transmitted to the day- date correction wheel rocking lever, and. the correcting gear attains a position where it interlocks neither the date dial nor intermediate wheel for day correction by action of the setting wheel lever complete and the day-date correction wheel rocking lever.
