About the Display

The display of the watch is divided into three areas: main (center), upper, and lower.

You can select either of two settings for the main display area:

Regular (background/figure color combination same as the upper and lower display areas) or Reverse (background/figure color combination opposite that of the upper and lower display areas).

The initial factory default setting for the main display area is “12H”, which switches between Regular and Reverse automatically every 12 hours.

See “Main Display Area Style” for information about changing the main display area style.
