World Time

Reset Time

You can set a “reset time,” which is a kind of alternate countdown start time you can recall with the press of a button any time a countdown operation is in progress.

Timer Mode

The countdown timer gives you a choice of two modes: auto-repeat and elapsed time.

Auto-repeat

The auto-repeat mode automatically restarts the countdown from the countdown start time you set whenever zero is reached.

The auto-repeat mode is best when timing the starts of match races.

Even if you start a countdown operation from the reset time, the countdown automatically restarts from the countdown start time whenever it reaches zero.

Auto repeat timing repeats up to seven times.

Elapsed Time

When the end of the countdown is reached in the elapsed time mode, the timer automatically switches to an elapsed time measurement operation.

The elapsed time mode is best when timing the speed of yachts during ocean races.

The elapsed time operation is performed in one-second increments up to 99 hours, 59 minutes, 59 seconds.

Countdown Timer Beeper Operations

The watch beeps at various times during a countdown so you can keep informed about the countdown status without looking at the display. The following describes the types of beeper operations the watch performs during a countdown.

Countdown End Beeper

The watch beeps each second of the final 10 seconds before a countdown reaches zero, and at zero. The watch emits a longer beep to signal when the countdown reaches zero.

The countdown end beeper always sounds, regardless of the on/off status of the progress beeper.

Progress Beeper

The progress beeper actually includes two beepers: a reset time beeper and a reset period progress beeper.

GMT differential

The World Time shows the current time in 27 cities (29 time zones) around the world.

The time settings of the Timekeeping Mode and the World Time Mode are independent from each other, so you must make separate settings for each.

Whenever you change the time setting for any city in the World Time Mode, the settings of all other cities are changed accordingly.

For full information on city codes, see the “City Code Table”.

All of the operations in this section are performed in the World Time Mode, which you enter by pressing C.

The reset time beeper and reset period progress beeper sound only while the progress beeper is turned on.

Reset Time Beeper

The reset time beeper is similar to the countdown end beeper. When the progress beeper is turned on, the watch beeps each second of the final 10 seconds before the countdown reaches the reset time.

Reset Period Progress Beeper

The reset period is the portion of the countdown between the reset time and zero. When the progress beeper is turned on, the watch emits four short beeps at the top of each minute during the reset period, and 30 seconds before the end of the countdown.

Countdown Timer Examples

Countdown start time: 10 minutes; Reset time: 5 minutes; Timer mode: Auto-repeat;

Progress beeper: On
