zone where that city is located. When setting the digital time, it is important that you
select the correct city code for your Home City. If your location is not included in the
preset city codes, select the preset city code that is in the same time zone as your
location.

When you enter the World Time 1 or World Time 2 Mode, the data you were viewing
when you last exited the mode appears first.
Timekeeping
• Resetting the seconds to AA while the current count is in the range of 30 to 59
causes the minutes to be increased by 1. In the range of 00 to 29, the seconds are
reset to
AA without changing the minutes.
• With the 12-hour format, the P (PM) indicator appears on the display for times in the
range of noon to 11:59 p.m. and the A (AM) 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.
• The year can be set in the range of 2000 to 2039.
• 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 batteries replaced.
The World Time hands show the hour in the cities
selected for World Time 1 and World Time 2. The minute
is indicated by the analog minute hand of Timekeeping
Mode time.
• In order for the World Time hands to operate correctly,
the Timekeeping Mode digital time (Home City time) and
analog time must be synchronized.
• The World Time hands show only the current mode’s
time in the World Time 1 Mode and World Time 2 Mode.
In all other modes, they show both the World Time 1 and
World Time 2 times.
• Each of the World Time hands indicates one of
12 hours. A PM indicator (P) appears for PM times,
while no indicator is displayed for AM times.
• When the difference between your Home City time and
a World Time Mode city has a half hour fractional part,
be sure to add or subtract a half hour from the reading
shown by the minute hand.
