The time differences and the use of daylight saving time (summer time) may change in some areas

HOW TO CHECK THE CALENDAR
●
If the crown is pulled out to the second click instead of the first click and pushed back in to the normal
position, the watch will not show the calendar.
●
Do not leave the crown at the first or second click when you use the watch, as this will shorten the
battery life.

Note on the leap second
One day normally is said to consist of 86,400 seconds. In fact, it can be longer or shorter than
this because of irregular changes in the rotation cycle of the earth. When the accumulated
fluctuations in the length of a day total plus or minus one second, one second must then be
added or subtracted as a correction factor. This is known as a “leap second”.
