Swapping your Home City and World Time City

You can use the procedure below to swap your Home City and World Time City. This capability can come in handy when you frequently travel between two locations in different time zones.

2.Rotate the crown to move the x Second Hand to the city code you want to select as the World Time City.

ξEach time you select a city code, the b Small Minute Hand, n Small Hour Hand, and m Small Hour Hand (24-hour)move to the current time. For details about city codes, see the “City Code Table” at the back of this manual.

ξWhenever you move the x Second Hand to 12 o’clock while selecting a city code, it will automatically perform one full revolution and stop at 12 o’clock from the opposite direction.

ξIf you think that the time indicated for the selected World Time City is not correct, it probably means that there is something wrong with your Home City settings. Use the procedure under “To configure Home City settings” (page E-24) to correct the Home City settings.

3.Hold down Afor about one second to cycle through the summer time settings as shown below.
