MAP METER/MILE MARKER FUNCTION AND ROTATING
COMPASS BEZEL
MAP METER/MILE MARKER FUNCTION
English
The map meter/mile marker function measures the real distance of a route on a map by
tracing the route with the wheel that drives the dial ring.
●
Models with the map meter function have a dial ring with a 1:50000-map meter scale
with kilometer readout.
●
Models with the mile marker function have a dial ring with a 1:62500-mile marker scale
with mile readout.

2. Turn the driving wheel gently so that “0 mile” on the dial ring aligns with “ ” at
the 9 o’clock position on the dial.
3. Place the map on a flat surface. Put the driving wheel aslant on your starting point.
With the dial of the watch facing up and the driving wheel in the 9 o’clock position,
trace the route slowly with the driving wheel so that the driving wheel rotates
counter clockwise.
4. Read the scale on the dial ring to which the “ ” on the dial points. (Refer to “How
to read the map meter/mile marker scale.”)

This watch is designed to measure the real distance
English
by using a map of a scale 1/50,000 with kilometer
readout.
● When using a map on a scale of 1/50,000:
The figure on the scale indicated by “ ” on the
dial corresponds to the real distance of the route
traced by the driving wheel.
Ex.) If “ ” points to “2” on the map meter scale,
▲
the real distance of the route traced is
“2 km.”
● When using a map on a scale other than the above:
Divide the scale of the map by the scale of the watch (50,000). Multiply this by the
distance indicated by ” “ on the map meter scale.
Ex.1) If the map used is drawn on a scale of 1/20,000 and “ “ points to “2” on the
map marker scale, the real distance of the route traced is:
Ex.2) If the map used is drawn on a scale of 1/150,000 and “ “ points to “6” on the
6
map marker scale, the real distance of the route traced is:
▲
▲
(20,000 / 50,000) x 2 = 0.8 km
▲
(150,000 / 50,000) x 6 = 18 km
[How to read the mile marker scale (For a model with the mile marker function)]
English
This watch is designed to measure the real distance
by using a map of a scale 1/62,500 with mile readout.
● When using a map on a scale of 1/62,500:
The figure on the scale indicated by “ ” on the dial
▲
corresponds to the real distance of the route
traced by the driving wheel.
Ex.) If “ ” points to “2” on the mile marker
▲
▲
scale, the real distance of the route traced is
“2 miles.”
● When using a map on a scale other than the above:
Divide the scale of the map by the scale of the watch (62,500). Multiply this by the
distance indicated by ” “ on the mile marker scale.
Ex.1) If the map used is drawn on a scale of 1/24,000 and “ “ points to “2”
▲
▲
on the mile marker scale, the real distance of the route traced is:
(24,000 / 62,500) x 2 = 0.77 miles
Ex.2) If the map used is drawn on a scale of 1/150,000 and “ “ points to “6”
▲
on the mile marker scale, the real distance of the route traced is:
(150,000 / 62,500) x 6 = 14.4 miles

PRECAUTIONS ON USING THE WATCH WITH THE MAP METER/MILE MARKER
FUNCTION
● When measuring the distance, trace the route on the map slowly and securely with
English
the driving wheel, taking care not to apply undue force onto the driving wheel.
However, if you press the driving wheel down onto the map too lightly, the wheel
may slip off from the route.
● Do not use the map meter/mile marker function in sandy or dusty places.
● Your watch is designed to withstand up to 20 bar, however, do not use the map
meter/mile marker function in water, as this may damage the driving wheel. When
wearing the watch in water, therefore, make sure that the driving wheel is securely
locked.
● In order to prevent putting a burden on the stem, keep the driving wheel locked while
wearing the watch in normal use.
● The accuracy of indication of distance obtained by the map meter/mile marker
function may be affected by the conditions where the measurement is made.
Therefore, the indication should only be used as an approximate guide.
● When handling the watch, exercise caution with the serrated edge of the driving
wheel, which is sharp and could potentially cause injuries. In order to prevent
potential injury from the serrated edge of the driving wheel, keep the driving wheel
locked while wearing the watch during normal use.

PRECAUTIONS ON USING THE COMPASS BEZEL
● Please use the compass in places where the sun is visible or its location is known.
● Before using the compass, it is necessary to set the 24-hour hand to the current time
of your area.
● The compass is so designed to provide only a rough indication of directions, and
should not be used where accuracy is critical.
● If daylight saving time (summer time) is in effect in your area, be sure to set your
watch one hour behind the current time before using the rotating compass bezel.
