Timekeeping
Use the Timekeeping Mode to set and view the current
time and date.
When setting the time, you can also configure settings for
summer time (Daylight Saving time or DST), your Home
City code (the code for the city where you normally use
the watch), and the 12/24-hour format.

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
select the correct city code for your Home City. 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.
•
After you correctly set your Home City time and date, you can set the watch up for
timekeeping with a different city code simply by changing the Home City code in the
Timekeeping Mode.
