Digital Time and Date

When setting the digital time, you can also configure settings for summer time (Daylight Saving Time or DST), your Home City code (the code for the city where you normally use the watch), and the 12/24-hour format.

This watch is preset with a number of city codes, each of which represents the time zone where that city is located. When setting the digital time, it is important that you select the correct city code for your Home City. If your location is not included in the preset city codes, select the preset city code that is in the same time zone as your location.

Note that all of the times for the World Time Mode city codes are displayed in accordance with the digital time and date settings you configure in the Timekeeping Mode.

After you correctly set your Home City time and date, you can set the watch up for timekeeping with a different city code simply by changing the Home City code in the Timekeeping Mode.
