Reference
This section contains more detailed and technical information about watch operation.It also contains important precautions and notes about the various features and functions of this watch.
Auto Return Features
- If you leave the watch in the Alarm or Edit Mode for two or three minutes without performing any operation, it changes to the Timekeeping Mode automatically.
- If you leave a screen with flashing digits or a cursor on the display for two or three minutes without performing any operation, the watch saves any settings you have made up to that point and exits the setting screen automatically.
ScrollingThe B and D buttons are used in various modes and setting screens to scroll through data on the display. In most cases, holding down these buttons scrolls at high speed.Initial ScreensWhen you enter the Timekeeping, World Time, Alarm, or Edit Mode, the data you were viewing when you last exited the mode appears first.
World Time
- The second’s count of the World Time is synchronized with the second’s count of the Timekeeping Mode.
- All World Time Mode times are calculated from the current Home City time in the Timekeeping Mode using UTC time differential values.
- The UTC differential is a value that indicates the time difference between a reference point in Greenwich, England, and the time zone where a city is located.
- The letter “UTC” is the abbreviation for “Coordinated Universal Time”, which is the worldwide scientific standard of timekeeping. It is based upon carefully maintained atomic (cesium) clocks that keep time accurately to within microseconds. Leap seconds are added or subtracted as necessary to keep UTC in sync with the Earth’s rotation.
Illumination PrecautionsAn LED (light-emitting diode) illuminates the display for easy reading in the dark. In any mode (except when a setting screen is on the display), press B to turn on illumination for about two seconds.
- Illumination may be hard to see when viewed under direct sunlight.
- Illumination turns off automatically whenever an alarm sounds.
- Frequent use of illumination runs down the battery.
