The Seiko NH34 (or NH34A) is a highly popular, budget-friendly automatic GMT watch movement introduced by Seiko Instruments. It features 24 jewels, a 41-hour power reserve, hacking (stop-seconds), and allows manual winding. It is known as a "caller GMT," meaning the GMT hand is independently adjustable rather than the local hour hand. [1, 2, 3, 4]

How to Use the Crown Functions
The NH34 uses a 3-position crown to operate its features: [1]
  1. Fully pushed in (Position 0): Used for manual winding. Turning it clockwise winds the mainspring.
  2. First click out (Position 1): Pulling the crown out one stop allows you to adjust the GMT hand (clockwise) and the date (counter-clockwise).
  3. Second click out (Position 2): Pulling the crown out two stops hacks (stops) the seconds hand and allows you to set the local time. [1, 2]
Important Usage Warnings
  • Do not set the date or GMT hand between 9:00 PM and 3:00 AM. The movement's internal date-changing gears engage during this window, and adjusting the time manually can damage the gears. [1]
