ξThe x Second Hand will move to the currently selected month. This is the month setting mode.

6.Rotate the crown to adjust the month setting.

7.Press B. This will enter the year setting mode.

ξThe z Hour Hand will move to the number that represents the tens digit of the year and the c Minute Hand will move to the number that represents the ones digit. The x Second Hand will move to 12 o’clock and stop there.

8.Rotate the crown to adjust the year setting.

ξIf you want to change the time setting at this time, press Band then perform the procedure starting from step 4 under “To change the current time setting manually” (page E-55).

9.After the settings are the way you want, push the crown back in to return to the Timekeeping Mode. Next, lock the crown.

ξThis causes timekeeping to resume with the x Second Hand starting from 12 o’clock.

ξRotating the ring without pushing it down as far as it will go will change the settings of the watch. When locking the crown, be sure to press down firmly on the ring as you rotate it.

Note

ξThe watch’s built-in full automatic calendar makes allowances for different month lengths and leap years. Once you set the date, there should be no reason to change it except after you have the watch’s rechargeable battery replaced or after power drops to Level 3.

Using the Stopwatch (Stopwatch Split Mode)

The stopwatch measures elapsed time and split times.

What is a split time?

A split time is the time elapsed from the start point of a race up to any point along the way in the race.

Example: Split times at the 10km point and at other points along the way in a marathon

Hands and Indicators

zHour Hand: Indicates the stopwatch minute count

(1 revolution = 60 minutes).

x Second Hand: Indicates the 1/20 (0.05)-second count during stopwatch operation.



c Minute Hand: Indicates the stopwatch seconds count.

v Mode Disk: Mode pointer points to ST. Then disk rotates until the split pointer points to STP (stopped), RUN (running), or SPL (split).

bChronograph Signal

To perform elapsed time measurement

1.Press the crown button to navigate to the Stopwatch Split Mode.

ξThe mode pointer will point to ST on the v Mode Disk. Then the disk will rotate until the split pointer points to STP (stopped), RUN (running), or SPL (split).

2.Now you can perform either of following stopwatch operations.

Note

ξThe Stopwatch Split Mode can indicate elapsed time up to 59 minutes, 59.95 seconds.

ξThe watch’s bezel is marked in 1/20 (0.05)-second units.

E-66

ξAn ongoing stopwatch operation will continue even if you pull out the crown to perform some setting operation.

ξIn the following cases, the hands of the watch are moving, so pressing Bwill not perform a reset operation.

−While the hands are moving to elapsed timekeeping after you enter the Stopwatch Split Mode

−While the watch is changing dates at midnight

ξOnce started, stopwatch timing continues until you press Ato stop it, even if you exit the Stopwatch Split Mode to another mode and even if timing reaches the stopwatch limit defined above.

ξYou can press Ato start an elapsed time operation immediately after entering the Stopwatch Split Mode, even if the watch’s hands are still moving to their initial Stopwatch Split Mode positions. Note, however, that if the stopwatch was not reset after the last elapsed time operation, timing will restart from where it was last stopped, and not from 12 o’clock.

E-67

ξThe x Second Hand indicates the 1/20 (0.05)-second count for the first 30 seconds of a stopwatch elapsed time operation. After that, the hand stops at 12 o’clock,

but 1/20 (0.05)-second timing continues internally after the first 30 seconds. The x Second Hand will jump to the current value whenever A(Stop) is pressed.

Using the Stopwatch (Stopwatch lap mode)

You can use the Stopwatch Lap Mode to measure elapsed time and lap times, and to recall lap times. Up to fi ve lap times can be stored in memory. There is also memory to record the fastest lap time. Though no more lap times are stored after fi ve times are in memory, the fastest lap time continues to be updated as required. Starting a new elapsed time operation clears all of the memories (including fastest lap time).

What is a lap time?

A lap time is the time elapsed over a specifi c segment of a race.

Example: Car race on an oval track
