ξBased on data as of December 2010.

ξThe rules governing global times (UTC offset and GMT differential) and summer time are determined by each individual country.

*In December 2007, the UTC offset for Caracas, Venezuela (CCS) was changed from –4 to –4.5. However, this watch still uses the old UTC offset of –4 when the Caracas (CCS) city code is selected.
