Help with date change...

Walrus

It sounds good. As long as you can change it I would be happy. If there is supposed to be another way to change it one of the experts will chime in. Nice looking watch though.

Hello everyone.
I write again looking for some help.

Recently, after a year of searching, my watchmaker can find the necessary spare part and we recover this piece:

This is a Seamaster CD 166.0032 from 1968, Caliber 752. It works very well after service with less than +4 seconds per day (in horizontal position).

But I'm not sure about the date change. I can change the day by pulling the crown, but to change the day of the week... I need turn hands until I reach the correct day. That's fine? It's the only way?

As usual I will appreciate your help and any comment about this watch.

Thanks.

Have you tried setting the time to 2:00 and then back to 10:00? You repeat that until the day of the week is right. Always from 10-2 and back.
But you have to keep in mind that the time is 22:00-02:00 and not 10:00-14:00. After that you can set the date by pulling the crown.
I am curious about your feedback.
