 Selecting a city code will cause the 

 

x

z Hour Hand, c Minute 

Hand, and 

v Upper Dial Hand to move automatically to the 

current time for the selected city code.
 If you will use the watch in a city that is not included in the

city code list, select a city code that is in the same time zone 
as your city.
 Displaying the Home City Settings screen will cause the 

 

x

short end of the 

b Lower Dial Hand to move to AUTO (auto 

switching), STD (standard time manual setting), or DST 
(summer time manual setting).

STD or DST is indicated, go directly to step 3 of this 

procedure.
If 

 

−

AUTO is indicated, proceed to step 2.

 Hold down

b Lower Dial Hand moves to MNL (manual), and then moves 
to STD or DST.

 If

STD is indicated, the watch will always show standard time

 If

STD/DST Switching
You can select summer time or standard time independently for each city. The initial default setting for all 
cities is AUTO.
Normally you should use the AUTO setting because it automatically switches between summer time 
and standard time. You should change the setting to STD (standard time) or DST (summer time) in the 
following cases.

 When using the watch in a city not included in the City Code Table

 

−

 When the switching dates in your location are different from those shown in the City Code Table

 

−

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.

 Note that you cannot switch between 

 

x

STD (standard time) and DST (daylight saving time) while UTC* 

is selected as your Home City.

*

The Home City is location where you will normally use the watch. You can choose from a selection of city 
codes that represent 29 cities around the globe.

 This watch does not have a city code that corresponds to Newfoundland.

 

x

 Pull out the crown.

1. 

 This will cause the 

 

x

x Second Hand to move to the city code of the 

currently selected Home City.
 This indicates the city code setting mode.

 

x

 If you do not perform any operation with the crown for about two 

 

x

minutes after pulling it out, crown operations will become disabled and 
the hand will not move if you rotate the crown. If this happens, push the 
crown back in and then pull it out again.
 For details about city codes, see the “City Code Table” at the back of 

 

x

this manual.
