The day of the week indicated by the
Hand changes automatically in accordance with the
date (year, month, and day).
Note
The watch's built-in full automatic calendar makes allowances for different month
lengths and leap years. Once you set the date, there should be no reason to
change it except after you have the watch's rechargeable battery replaced or after
power drops to Level 3.

Using the Stopwatch

The stopwatch measures elapsed time and split times.
Hand Functions
x Second Hand: Indicates the stopwatch 1/10-second
b Lower Left Dial Hands:
Indicate the stopwatch minutes (short hand) and
seconds (long hand).
n Right Dial Hand:
Indicates the stopwatch 1/100-second count.
To perform elapsed time measurement

Use
C to move the n Right Dial Hand to 0.

resume automatically after five seconds.

Note
The Stopwatch Mode can indicate elapsed time up to 23 minutes, 59.99 seconds.
D button operation (split, reset) is disabled while hands are moving at high speed
following a reset operation and when transitioning from a split time back to normal
elapsed timekeeping.
Once started, stopwatch timing continues until you press
exit the Stopwatch Mode to another mode and even if timing reaches the stopwatch
limit defined above.
If the stopwatch was not reset after the last elapsed time operation, timing will
restart from where it was last stopped, and not from 0.
The
x Second Hand indicates the 1/10-second count for the first 30 seconds
of a stopwatch elapsed time operation. After that, the hand stops at 12 o'clock
position. 1/10-second timing continues internally after the first 30 seconds, and the
x Second Hand will jump to the current value whenever B (Stop) or D (Split) is
pressed.
Though the
n Right Dial Hand is stopped while an elapsed time measurement
operation is in progress, the watch keeps track of the 1/100-second count
internally. The n Right Dial Hand will jump to the current 1/100-second reading
whenever you stop the stopwatch or perform a split time operation.
Checking the Current Time in a Different Time Zone
You can use the World Time Mode to view the current time in one of 29 time zones
around the globe. The city that is currently selected in the World Time Mode is called
the "World Time City".
Hand Functions
x Second Hand:
Indicates the currently selected World Time City.
b Lower Left Dial Hands:
Indicate the current time in the selected World Time
City in 24-hour format.
n Right Dial Hand:
Indicates the current STD (standard time) or DST
(daylight saving time) setting of the currently selected
time zone.
To view the time in another time zone
1.
Use
C to move the n Right Dial Hand to STD or DST.
The
x Second Hand will move to the city code of the currently selected World
Time City.
2.
Use
D to move the x Second Hand to the city code you want to select as the
World Time City.
The
b Lower Left Dial Hands will move to the current time in the time zone of
the current city code. At this time, the z Hour Hand and c Minute Hand will
continue to indicate the current time in the Home City.
For full information on city codes, see the "City Code Table".
If you think that the time indicated for the selected time zone is not correct, it
probably means that there is something wrong with your Home City settings.
Use the procedure under "To configure Home City settings" to correct the Home
City settings.

Swapping your Home City and World Time City
You can use the procedure below to swap your Home City and World Time City. This
capability can come in handy when you frequently travel between two locations in
different time zones.
The following example shows what happens when the Home City and World Time
City are swapped while the Home City originally is TOKYO (TYO) and the World Time
City is NEW YORK (NYC).

it will change the Home City you had selected prior
to step 2 (TOKYO/TYO in this example), to your new
World Time City.
After swapping the Home City and World Time City, the
watch will stay in the World Time Mode. The x Second
Hand will point to your new World Time City (TOKYO/
TYO in this example).
The
b Lower Left Dial Hands will indicate the current
time in your new World Time City.
