The alarm is set by pulling out the crown at 2 o’clock slightly and rotating the disc to position the triangle next to the desired hour. Then push the crown back in and wind.

Now you can find the time around the world by corresponding the city next to 24 hour time on the disc. Shipping will be by FEDEX insured and cost $50.
