Default Now I am realy stumped

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.

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
