Meticulously assembled using high quality materials and components, it is protected against impacts, temperature variations, water and dust. This manual applies to TISSOT® GMT quartz perpetual calendars with a G15 movement. To ensure that your perpetual calendar operates with perfect precision for many years to come, we advise you to pay careful attention to the advice given in this manual. Settings Models with screw-down crown To ensure even better water resistance, some models are fitted with a screw-down crown. Before setting the time or date, you must first unscrew the crown to position IB, before pulling it out to position II or III. Important: After each operation, you must always screw the crown back down to ensure that your watch remains water-resistant. Setting the time Pull the crown out to position III and turn it clockwise or anticlockwise to set the desired time. Synchronise the small second hand at the 6 o'clock position with an official time signal (radio/ TV/Internet), by pulling the crown out to the second position; the hand will stop. Once the time is synchronised, push the crown back into position I (and tighten it back down on models with screw-down crown). Winding Quartz watches do not need to be wound. Resetting the indicators The day, month and date hands may need to be reset. The indicators are reset with the crown in position II. Corrector A allows the selected indicator to be set. Corrector B allows selection of the indicator to be reset.

After immersion in salt water, rinse it in fresh water and leave it to dry completely. Do not leave it anywhere subjected to high variations in temperature or humidity, direct sunlight or strong magnetic fields. We would advise you to have your watch inspected every 3 to 4 years by an approved TISSOT® representative or retailer. To enjoy impeccable maintenance service and ensure the guarantee remains valid, always consult an approved TISSOT® representative or retailer. TISSOT® perpetual calendars have the incomparable precision of quartz. Their power reserve is usually more than 2 years in continuous use.

    © Galactic Research Institute of the Foundation for the Law of Time - www.lawoftime.org THIRTEEN MOONS IN MOTION: A Dreamspell Primer “Just as air is the atmosphere of the body, so time is the atmosphere of the mind; if the time in which we live consists of uneven months and days regulated by mechanized minutes and hours, that is what becomes of our mind: a mechanized irregularity. Since everything follows from mind, it is no wonder that The atmosphere in which we live daily becomes more polluted, And the greatest complaint is: ‘I just don’t have enough time!’ Who owns your time, owns your mind. Own your own time and you will know your own mind.” Foundation for the Law of Time www.lawoftime.org © Galactic Research Institute of the Foundation for the Law of Time - www.lawoftime.org 13-Moon Planetary Kin Starter Calendar 3 A Season Of Apocalypses: The Gregorian Calendar Unmasked A 13-Moon Postscript to the Mayan Factor 1. Thinking about the Unthinkable Of all the unexamined assumptions and criteria upon which we base and gauge our daily lives as human beings on planet Earth, by far the greatest and most profoundly unquestioned is the instrument and institution known as the Gregorian Calendar. A calendar, any calendar, is commonly understood as a system for dividing time over extended periods. A day is the base unit of a calendar, and the solar year is the base extended period. The length of the solar year is currently reckoned at 365.242199 days. The Gregorian calendar divides this duration into twelve uneven months – four months of 30 days, seven of 31 days, and one of 28 days.

  • 13 Moon Self Study Pilot Program
    The Great Calendar Change of 2004 Premise: To Declare the End of Time and Shift from Fear to Love, Change the Calendar! Premise: To accept the 13 moon calendar is a positive, concrete act demonstrating the move from fear to love, from chaos to harmony, from war to peace. The end of time is the end of the old time of violence and separation encoded in an irregular and chaotic calendar. The New Time of Peace and harmony emerges as light embedded in a perpetual calendar that is a reflection of Eternity. For more than 150 years this change has been deliberated. Now the cycle is closing. The closing of the cycle means the reintegration of the human consciousness into the solar ring through the application of the correct standard of measure. Whether humans are aware of it or not the Earth goes around the sun and it makes a solar ring with each orbit. With the accurate measure of the 13 moons each with 28 days the solar ring can be made conscious. If we make this simple adjustment of following the Thirteen Moon calendar, then in one year our consciousness will bring the orbital solar frequencies into proper alignment with the human mind. This precipitates heightened awareness or consciousness that has not previously been known. When history began in Babylonia, Sumeria and the Middle East it forfeited knowledge of the solar ring for a focus ion the synodic lunar calendar which has nothing to do with the solar ring. When the conquest of the New World happened, the Babylonians destroyed the knowledge of the calendar which contained knowledge of the solar orbit.

  • Welcome to the Source of Data on Calendars
    19/04/2019 Calendopaedia - The Encyclopaedia of Calendars Welcome to THE source of data on calendars. I recommend that you start by looking at the Comparison of Calendars. Alternatively you could choose from one of these pull-down meus then click 'Go'. Choose a calendar :- Go or Choose a topic :- Go Since the dawn of civilisation man has kept track of time by use of the sun, the moon, and the stars. Man noticed that time could be broken up into units of the day (the time taken for the earth to rotate once on its axis), the month (the time taken for the moon to orbit the earth) and the year (the time taken for the earth to orbit the sun). This information was needed so as to know when to plant crops and when to hold religious ceremonies. The problems were that a month is not made up of an integral number of days, a year is not made of an integral number of months and neither is a year made up of an integral number of days. This caused man to use his ingenuity to overcome these problems and produce a calendar which enabled him to keep track of time. The ways in which these problems were tackled down the centuries and across the world is the subject of this Web site. It is recommended that you start by looking at the Comparison of Calendars. This page was produced by Michael Astbury. Thanks to all the reference sources which I have quoted (too many to list them all) and to all the friends who have contributed to these pages in so many ways.

  • Gauss' Calendar Formula for the Day of the Week
    GAUSS’ CALENDAR FORMULA FOR THE DAY OF THE WEEK BERNDT E. SCHWERDTFEGER In memory of my father Martin Walter (1910–1977) ABSTRACT. This paper describes a formula of C. F. GAUSS for calculating the day of the week from the calendar date and gives a conceptual proof. A formula for the Julian day number is derived. My implementation of the formula in REXX and C is included. PREFACE GAUSS’ formula calculates the day of the week, Monday, . , Sunday, from the calendar date year-month-day. I learned about it in 1962 when reading the Mathematical Recreations [2] by MAURICE KRAITCHIK (1882–1957). It is stated there without proof, together with an application to a perpetual calendar. This article explains the formula and its mathematical background, including a proof and the concepts behind the algorithms implemented in the program gauss.c. GAUSS never published his formula; it appeared only in 1927 in his Werke [1, [XI, 1.]. For the convenience of the reader I have included this notice in appendix A.1 Berlin, 11 May 2009 © 2001–2018 Berndt E. Schwerdtfeger v1.4a, 14 November 2018 1. GAUSS’ FORMULAEXPLAINED 1.1. The Gauss formula. Given are d day, m month, y year. We split the year into Æ Æ Æ the century part and the two digit year inside the century. For m 3 it is done for the ¸ year y 100 c g, i.e. c [y/100], g y 100 c, such that 0 g 99. For m 1,2 it is Æ ¢ Å Æ Æ ¡ ¢ · · Æ done for the year y 1 100 c g.
