·Ha! Sometimes 'weird' is attractive...not sure how to explain it, but "I likes what I likes"!
Now, how to figure out how those dates and months work!
WITTNAUER 2000
INSTRUCTIONS
The center crown at 3 o’clock when pulled out is used to set the hands by turning the crown and setting the hands to the desired time.
The Push in pusher at 2 o’clock will advance the date one date at a time in the Date Window at 3 o’clock per each depression of the pusher.
The Day of the week in Day Window at 3 o’clock advances only the hands are rotated every 24 hours, or 2 full complete turns around the watch.
The crown at 4 o’clock does not pull out. When it is turned, it advances both the Day wheel between 11 - 1 o’clock, and the year wheel between 5 - 7 o’clock.
Since this watch was designed to show up to the year 2000, you simply need to know what prior years equate to present and future years as far as the days of the week being the same as the date of each month. The calendar as far as the same Day of the week for each date repeats itself. For Example:
Year 2020 is equal to the Prior Year 1992
Year 2021 is equal to the Prior Years 1971/1993
Year 2022 is equal to the Prior Years 1977/1994
Set the bottom Year at the Bottom of the Dial aligned with the Month at the bottom of the Dial to make the Calendar at the Top of the Dial correct for Day and Date for that month.
