The instructions that you will find on their web site do not mention the button you describe.
Re-setting the hands is done by pressing the button B (4 o'clock). The instructions are a little ambiguous, so if this fails, then press button A to start and A again to Stop. Then try button B to re-set.
You appear to have the wrong instructions. A new set can be downloaded by going to their web site (www.raymond-weil.com), put your cursor over "customer care" and a drop down menu will appear. Select "instructions for use" and an index of watch types will be displayed. Download the one for your watch.
Make sure you are turning the crown clockwise and stop winding when you feel the tension increase. Also, try wearing it for a day even if it is not runninr; the motion may be enough to get it going if it is an automatic.
There may be something more wrong with your watch.
If the RW is less than 2 years old you should be covered, they have one of the best warranties in the business.
If it needs repair and is older than 2 years, I would still send it to the RW repair center in NY to see what they can do.
I suggest taking the back cover off, removing the battery and reinstalling it again. Make sure the battery is installed correctly and is the exact type. Its very easy to put them upside down, Sometimes it may take a couple tries.
