Setting the month

Note

6.After you select the year ones digit, press C.

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

7.Use Dto move the x Second Hand to the month setting you want.

8.After the month setting is the way you want, press C.

••The x Second Hand will move to 12 o’clock, and the watch will enter the day setting mode.

9.Use D(+) and B(–) to change the m Day setting.

••If you want to change the time setting at this time, press Cand then perform the procedure starting from step 3 under “To change the current time setting manually”.

10.After the settings are the way you want, press Ato return to regular timekeeping.

••This will cause the x Second Hand to move automatically to 12 o’clock and resume movement from there.

••The day of the week indicated by the v Left Dial Hand changes automatically in accordance with the date (year, month, and day).

Checking the Current Time in a Different Time Zone

You can use the World Time Mode to view the current time in one of 29 time zones around the globe. Each time zone has a “city code”, which is a three-letter abbreviation of a representative city in the zone. The representative city of the time zone that is currently selected in the World Time Mode is called the “World Time City”.

Hand Functions

xSecond Hand: Indicates the currently selected World

Time City.

v Left Dial Hand: Indicates the current STD (standard

		time) or DST (daylight saving time)
		setting of the currently selected World
		Time City.
	n	Right Dial Hands: Indicate the current time in the
	n	Right Dial Hands: Indicate the current time in the
		selected World Time City in 24-hour
		format.

To view the time in another time zone

1. Use Cto move the v Left Dial Hand to STD or DST.

••This indicates the World Time Mode.

2. Use Dto move the x Second Hand to the city code you want to select as the

World Time City.

••The n Right Dial Hands will move to the current time in the currently selected

World Time City. At this time, the z Hour Hand and c Minute Hand will continue

to indicate the current time in the Home City.

••For full information on city codes, see the “City Code Table”.

••If 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” to correct the Home

••The 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

City settings.

To specify standard time or daylight saving time (DST) for a time zone

power drops to Level 3.

Using the Stopwatch

The stopwatch measures elapsed time and split times.

Hand Functions

xSecond Hand: Indicates the stopwatch 1/10-second

count.

v Left Dial Hand: Indicates the stopwatch 1/100-second

count.

n Right Dial Hands: Indicate the stopwatch minutes and

seconds.

To perform elapsed time measurement

1. Use Cto move the v Left Dial Hand to 0.

Hold down Afor two seconds

1.In the World Time Mode, use Dto select the city code for the time whose setting you want to change.

••Wait until the n Right Dial Hands complete their move to the time in the currently selected World Time City. You will not be able to perform step 2 of this procedure until the hands stop moving.

2.Hold down Afor about two seconds until the watch beeps. This will cause the v Left Dial Hand to toggle between DST (daylight saving time) and STD (standard time).

••Note that you cannot switch between STD (standard time)/DST (daylight saving/summer time) while UTC is selected as the World Time City.

••Note that the STD (standard time)/DST (daylight saving/summer time) setting affects only the currently selected time zone. Other time zones are not affected.

••This indicates the Stopwatch Mode.

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

••You will not be able to perform any stopwatch operation while the hands are

moving to their initial positions after you enter the Stopwatch Mode.

Note

••The Stopwatch Mode can indicate elapsed time up to 23 minutes, 59.99 seconds.

••In the following cases, the hands of the watch are moving, so pressing Dor Bwill not perform any stopwatch operation.

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

−−While the watch is changing dates at midnight

••Once started, stopwatch timing continues until you press Bto stop it, even if you exit the Stopwatch Mode to another mode or timing reaches the stopwatch limit defined above.

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.

The following example shows what happens when the Home City and World Time City are swapped while the Home City originally is TYO (Tokyo) and the World Time City is NYC (New York).

	Home City	World Time City
	Tokyo	New York
Before swapping	10:08 p.m.	9:08 a.m.
	(Standard time)	(Daylight saving time)
	New York	Tokyo
After swapping	9:08 a.m.	10:08 p.m.
	(Daylight saving time)	(Standard time)
To swap your Home City and World Time City
	1. In the World Time Mode, use Dto select the World
	Time City you want.
	••In this example, you would move the x Second Hand
	to NYC in order to select New York as the World
	Time City.
	••Wait until the n Right Dial Hands complete their
	move to the time in the currently selected World Time
	City. You will not be able to perform step 2 of this
	procedure until the hands stop moving.

••Whenever you enter the Stopwatch Mode, the hands of the watch move to their initial Stopwatch Mode positions. If you did not reset the stopwatch the last time you used it, the hands will return to the positions they were in the last time you exited the Stopwatch Mode.

••The x Second Hand indicates the 1/10-second count for the first 30 seconds of a stopwatch elapsed time operation. After that, the hand stops at 0. 1/10-second timing continues internally after the first 30 seconds, and the x Second Hand will jump to the current value whenever B(Stop) or D(Split) is pressed.

••Though the v Left Dial Hand is stopped while an elapsed time measurement operation is in progress, the watch keeps track of the 1/100-second count internally. The v Left Dial Hand will jump to the current 1/100-second reading whenever you stop the stopwatch or perform a split time operation.

2.Hold down Bfor about three seconds until the watch beeps.

••This will make the World Time City (NYC in this example) your new Home City. At the same time, it will change the Home City you had selected prior to step 2 (TYO in this example) to your World Time City.

••After swapping the Home City and World Time City, the watch will stay in the World Time Mode. The

xSecond Hand will point to your new World Time City (TYO in this example).

••The n Right Dial Hands will indicate the current time in your new World Time City.

Note

••If your current World Time City supports time calibration signal reception, making it your Home City enables calibration signal reception for that city.
