•On some days, there are two high tides. With this watch, you can adjust the first high tide time only. The second high tide time for that day is adjusted automatically based on the first high tide time.

Reversing the Displayed Moon Phase

The left-right (east-west) appearance of the Moon depends on whether the Moon is north of you (northerly view) or south of you (southerly view) as you view it.

You can use the procedure below to reverse the displayed Moon phase so it matches the actual appearance of the Moon where you are located.

•To determine the viewing direction of the Moon, use a compass to take a direction reading of the Moon at its meridian passage.

•For information about the Moon phase indicator, see “Moon Phase Indicator”.

•See “Moon Phase Indicator” for information about the moon phase indicator and “Tide Graph” for information about the tide graph.

•All of the operations in this section are performed in the Tide/Moon Data Mode.

Note

•It takes about two seconds to calculate tide graph data. You will not be able to display a setting screen while data calculation is in progress.

•Moon age is calculated to an accuracy of ±1 day.

•You can view the current tide and moon age graph in the Timekeeping Mode.

Tide Data

The Tide Graph that appears first when you enter the Tide/Moon Data Mode shows the data at 6:00 a.m. for your currently selected tide site on the current date, according to the Timekeeping Mode. From there you can specify another time on the same date.

City code

Current time in selected city

World Time shows the current time in 48 cities (31 time zones) around the world.

•The times kept in the World Time Mode are synchronized with the time being kept in the Timekeeping Mode. If you feel that there is an error in any World Time Mode time, check to make sure you have the correct city selected as your Home City. Also check to make sure that the current time as shown in the Timekeeping Mode is correct.

•Select a city code in the World Time Mode to display the current time in any particular time zone around the globe. See the “City Code Table” for information about the UTC differential settings that are supported.

•All of the operations in this section are performed in the World Time Mode, which you enter by pressing C.

•If the tide data is not correct, check your Timekeeping Mode settings and correct them if necessary. See “To configure tide site settings” for more information.
