simey83 2,080 Posted June 13, 2014 Hey der! I was setting the time on my moonie this morning and when I turned the crown anti-clockwise, to move the minute hand back it made the seconds go backwards? eh? Was only for a second or so....I read this is normal, but not good for it? I can move it ever so slightly to stop the seconds until it the time is right! Is this ok? Anyone got any tips to get the time set accurately? Just wait till it runs out and go from there perhaps?
