Read This Before You Set the Time and Date!
This watch is preset with a number of city codes, each of which represents
the time zone where that city is located. When setting the time, it is important
that you first select the correct city code for your Home City (the city where
you normally use the watch). If your location is not included in the preset city
codes, select the preset city code that is in the same time zone as your
location.
•
Note that all of the times for the World Time Mode city codes are displayed
in accordance with the time and date settings you configure in the
Timekeeping Mode.
To set the time and date manually
1. In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down
E
until the city code starts to flash,
which indicates the setting screen.
2. Use
A
and
C
to select the city code you want.
•
Make sure you select your Home City code before changing any other
setting.
•
For full information on city codes, see the “City Code Table”.

Daylight Saving Time (DST)
Daylight Saving Time (summer time) advances the time setting by one hour
from Standard Time. Remember that not all countries or even local areas use
Daylight Saving Time.
The time calibration signals transmitted from Mainflingen (Germany), Anthorn
(England), or Fort Collins (the United States) include both Standard Time and
DST data. When the Auto DST setting is turned on, the watch switches
between Standard Time and DST (summer time) automatically in accordance
with the signals.
•
Though the time calibration signal transmitted by the Fukushima and
Fukuoka/Saga, Japan transmitters include summer time data, summer time
currently is not implemented in Japan (as of 2007).
•
The default DST setting is Auto DST (
) whenever you select
LON
,
PAR
,
BER
,
ATH
,
NYC
,
CHI
,
DEN
,
LAX
,
ANC
,
HNL
, or
TYO
as your Home City code.
•
If you experience problems receiving the time calibration signal in your
area, it probably is best to switch between Standard Time and Daylight
Saving Time (summer time) manually.
To change the Daylight Saving Time (summer time) setting
1. In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down
E
until
the city code starts to flash, which indicates
the setting screen.
2. Press
D
and the DST setting screen appears.
3. Use

If you change your Home City to one that is within the same transmitter

Reference
This section contains more detailed and technical information about watch
operation. It also contains important precautions and notes about the various
features and functions of this watch.
Moon Phases and Moon Age
The Moon goes through a regular 29.53-day cycle. During each cycle, the
Moon appears to wax and wane as the relative positioning of the Earth,
Moon, and Sun changes. The greater the angular distance between the Moon
and the Sun,* the more we see illuminated.
* The angle to the Moon in relation to the direction at which the Sun is visible
from the Earth.
This watch performs a rough calculation of the current Moon age starting
from day 0 of the moon age cycle. Since this watch performs calculations
using integer values only (no fractions), the margin for error of the displayed
Moon age is ± 1 day.
