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. Each time zone has a "city code", which is a three-letter
abbreviation of a representative city in the zone. The representative city of the time
zone that is currently selected in the World Time Mode is called the "World Time City".

Adjusting Home Positions

Strong magnetism or impact can cause the hands and/or date of the watch to be off.
If this happens, perform the applicable home position adjustment procedures in this
section.
Hand home position adjustment is not required if the time and day settings are
correct.
Note
Any time after you enter the home position adjustment mode in step 1 of the following
procedure, you can return to the Timekeeping Mode by pressing A. The watch also
will return to the Timekeeping Mode automatically if you do not perform any operation
for about two or three minutes in the home position adjustment mode. In either case,
any adjustments you made before the watch returned to the Timekeeping Mode will
be applied.

For full information on city codes, see the "City Code Table" at the back of this
manual.
If you think that the time indicated for the selected World Time City is not correct,
it probably means that there is something wrong with your Home City settings.
Use the procedure under "To confi gure summer time and other Home City
settings" (page E-24) 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 TYO (Tokyo) and the World Time
City is NYC (New York).
