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.

City code setting starts to flash, which indicates the

setting screen.

zones) around the world. You can assign an index mark to

city codes that you often use, to make them easier to find

when you need them.

World Time Mode, which you enter by pressing C.

To view the time in another city

In the World Time Mode, press D to scroll eastwardly

through city codes.

• If there are no city codes currently marked with an index

mark, holding down D scrolls through city codes at high

speed in normal sequence. If there are index marked

city codes, holding down D jumps to the next marked

city code. See “To assign index marks to city codes”

below for more information.

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

• If the current time shown for a city is wrong, it probably means there is a problem

with your Timekeeping Mode time and/or Home City code settings. Go to the

Timekeeping Mode and make the necessary adjustments.

1. In the World Time Mode, use D to display the city code

that you want to mark.
