FEATURES

This solar radio-controlled watch is equipped with a time zone adjustment function.

The watch can automatically display local time in a different time zone by selecting the time zone. It can receive official standard frequencies of Germany, the United States and Japan to adjust the time.

■AUTOMATIC TIME SETTING

The watch maintains the precise time by automatically receiving radio signals on an official standard frequency. The watch can receive official standard frequencies of Germany, the United States, and Japan (from either of two transmitting stations) by selecting the time zone.

Manual reception is also possible (the watch is unable to receive radio signals outside of the reception range of each standard frequency).

■DISPLAY OF RADIO SIGNAL RECEPTION LEVEL

During reception attempts, the watch displays the reception level of radio signals.

■DISPLAY OF RADIO SIGNAL RECEPTION RESULT

Reception result (succeeded or failed) can be confirmed following reception of radio signals.

■AUTOMATIC CALENDAR

The calendar adjusts odd and even months including February in leap years.

■TIME ZONE ADJUSTMENT

The watch can be set to local time in a different time zone by selecting a time zone.

■AUTOMATIC HAND ALIGNMENT

When the hand positions display incorrect time as a result of the influence of various external sources, the watch automatically corrects the hand alignment itself.

■SOLAR RECHARGEABLE BATTERY

A solar cell underneath the dial converts any form of light into "electrical energy” to power the watch and the power is stored in a secondary battery. Once fully charged, the watch continues to run for approximately six months.

■ENERGY DEPLETION FOREWARNING FUNCTION

The movement of the second hand indicates that the battery should be charged.

■POWER SAVE

The Power Save mode can be activated when the watch is left without an adequate light source.
