Question on MCC quick-set date - clockwise or counter-clockwise
Hi,
I'm new to this forum and to JLC watches, but have collected other brands for many years. Have just bought a MCC Chronograph (version 1) from a reputable dealer. However, there is one thing puzzles me and I'm hoping for some help from this forum.
In the user instruction booklet in the section for the quick-set date function it clearly says the crown is supposed to be turned counter-clockwise in order to advance the date weel (in crown position 2), but on the watch itself the quick-set date is done by turning the crown clockwise. I have no reason to believe the watch is counterfeit, but it's worrying that the watch function doesn't match the manual.
I have seen a video clip of the MCC2 being set and the quick-set date change was clearly clockwise (crown) then. Jaeger LeCoultre's website specfies calibre 751 for MCC and calibre 751F for MCC2, is there a difference there?
Great if someone here could help me here for some peace of mind. It's a fantastic watch and would like to start enjoying it 100%!
Gunnar
