About Receiving Leap Second Information

A leap second is a second that is inserted (or removed) to adjust the deviation between world time and international
atomic clock time.
When the watch receives GPS satellite signals after June 1st and December 1st, it also automatically receives leap
second information.
The leap second is received within up to 18 minutes after completing time adjustment using GPS satellite signals.
While receiving signals, the indicator hand points to M.
When the leap second information is received successfully, the leap second is automatically inserted (or removed)
when it is time to use the leap second.
Note:
