Abstract
A method of setting/calibrating at least two display hands in an electronic device, wherein the method comprises the steps of initiating an actuation sequence of the setting/calibration mechanism; causing the first of the at least two display hands to rotate at least in one of a clockwise and counterclockwise direction and in a manner that is independent of the actuation sequence; initiating a hand selection sequence via a selection mode to select the second of the at least two display hands to be set/calibrated; and while preventing the first of the at least two display hands from rotating, causing the second of the at least two display hands to rotate in at least one of a clockwise and counterclockwise direction and in a manner independent of the hand selection sequence; wherein the second of the at least two display hands would be next for setting/calibrating.
