Poblem -1877 keywind Waltham PS Bartlett serial #1699186 running well.
Sits in a deuber silver case.
I be darned if I can find a place to change the time .
Thier is only one key hole in back to wind watch . If you remove the watch from case I can not see any lever adjustment other than one small retangular hole with a flat pin in side it . If you push on the pin it seems to want to remove the face dial so I left it alone .
If watch is in case it lays completely flat inside with no differance between the height of the case and the watch face or a place for lever set . One last thing watch seem to move inside case nothing securing it

Your watch is a key wind/set. You set the hands with the same key you wind it with. Take a good look at the square the is in the center of the hands.

Learning everyday.

Be careful when you set the time. If you slip with the key, you can put a crack in your dial or destroy a hand.

You might want to take a look at this http://24.153.124.124/watchmaker/cwar.htm
