Corrector

 

 Is a protruding button located on the watch case that is used to adjust various functions or complications. By pressing it in a specific manner, depending on the type of watch and the functions it has. These functions can include the date, moon phase, or other complications that may not be linked directly to the crown of the watch.


The mechanism of the corrector varies from watch to watch, and there may be separate correctors for each function in the watch to independently adjust them. For example, there may be a corrector for adjusting the time and another corrector for adjusting the date.
