12-hour and 24-hour timekeeping
With the 12-hour format, the PM ( P) indicator appears to the left of the hour digits
for times in the range of noon to 11:59 p.m. and no indicator appears for times in
the range of midnight to 11:59 a.m.
With the 24-hour format, times are displayed in the range of 0:00 to 23:59, without
any indicator.

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.
E-72
Dual Time
Dual Time lets you display the current time in another time zone called your "Dual
Time City", in addition to your Home City's current time. This feature is very handy for
business professionals and others who need to keep track of the current time in two
different time zones.
For information about how to display the current time in the Dual Time City in the
lower display, see page E-64.

Correction of Hand Home Positions
The hour and minute hands of the watch can be thrown off by exposure to strong
magnetism or impact. The watch is designed to perform hour and minute hand
correction automatically every hour in order to correct variation within the range of –55
minutes to +5 minutes.
You can trigger auto hour and minute hand position correction manually, if you want
(page E-77).
If the variation is greater than –55 minutes to +5 minutes, you can trigger auto hand
position correction manually or perform correction of the hour and minute hand
home positions manually (page E-78).
If the dial hands are off, you will need to correct their home positions manually
(page E-78).

The 12-hour/24-hour timekeeping format you select in the Timekeeping Mode is
applied in all other modes.
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 Mainfl ingen (Germany), Anthorn
(England), and 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 (Daylight Saving Time) automatically in accordance with the signals.
Though the time calibration signals transmitted by the Fukushima and Fukuoka/
Saga, Japan transmitters include summer time data, summer time currently is not
implemented in Japan (as of 2010).
The default DST setting is Auto DST (
PAR, ROM, BER, STO, ATH, MOW, TYO, ANC, YVR, LAX, YEA, DEN, MEX, CHI,
MIA, YTO, NYC, YHZ, or YYT as your Home City code.
