Radio-controlled Timekeeping
This watch receives a time calibration signal and updates its time setting accordingly.
The time calibration signal includes both Standard Time and Daylight Saving Time
(summer time) data.
• This watch is designed to pick up the time calibration signal transmitted in Germany
(Mainflingen), England (Rugby), the United States (Fort Collins) and the time
calibration signals transmitted in Japan.
Current Time Setting
This watch adjusts its time setting automatically in accordance with a time calibration
signal. You can also perform a manual procedure to set the time and date, when
necessary.
• The first thing you should do after purchasing this watch is to specify your Home
Time Zone, which is the time zone where you will normally use the watch. For more
information, see “To specify your Home Time Zone” below.
• When using the watch outside the range of the time signal transmitters, you will have
to adjust the current time setting manually as required. See “Timekeeping” for more
information about manual time settings.
• The U.S. time calibration signal can be picked up by the watch while in North
America.
* The term “North America” in this manual refers to the area that consists of
Canada, the continental United States, and Mexico.
To specify your Home Time Zone
1. In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down B for about five
seconds until the currently selected Time Zone appears
on the display. This is the setting mode.
• The GMT differential value indicates the time
difference in hours between Greenwich Mean Time
and the currently selected time zone.
2. Press A to select the time zone you want to use as
your Home Time Zone.
0 (GMT 0)
: London
+1 (GMT+ 1) : Paris, Berlin, Milan, Rome, Amsterdam,
Hamburg, Frankfurt, Vienna, Barcelona, Madrid
+2 (GMT+ 2) : Athens
+9 (GMT+ 9) : All cities in Japan
Time Zone
E (GMT–5) : New York, Detroit, Miami, Boston, Montreal

3. Press B ten times to exit the setting mode.
• The watch will also return to the Timekeeping Mode if you do not perform any
operation for about three minutes.
• Normally, your watch should show the correct time as soon as you exit the Home
Time Zone setting screen. If it does not, it should adjust automatically after the next
auto receive operation (in the middle of the night). You can also perform manual
receive or you can set the time manually.
• Even if the time calibration signal is received correctly, there are some times when
the analog hands may not indicate the correct time. If this happens, use the
procedures under “Adjusting the Home Positions” to check the home positions of the
hands, and make adjustments as required.
• The watch will receive the time calibration signal automatically from the applicable
transmitter (in the middle of the night) and update its settings accordingly. For
information about the relationship between time zones (GMT differential values) and
transmitters, see “Transmitters”.
• See the maps under “Reception Ranges” for information about the reception ranges
of the watch.
• You can disable time signal reception, if you want. See “To set the time and date
manually” for more information.
Time Calibration Signal Reception
There are two different methods you can use to receive the time calibration signal:
auto receive and manual receive.
• Auto Receive
With auto receive, the watch receives the time calibration signal automatically up to
five times a day. When any auto receive is successful, the remaining auto receive
operations are not performed. For more information, see “About Auto Receive”.
• Manual Receive
Manual receive lets you start a time calibration receive operation with the press of a
button. For more information, see “To perform manual receive”.
Important!
• When getting ready to receive the time calibration signal, position the watch as
shown in the nearby illustration, with its 6 o’clock side facing towards a window.
Make sure there are no metal objects nearby.

• Signal reception is normally better at night than during the day.
• Time calibration signal reception takes from two to seven minutes, but in some
cases it can take as long as ten minutes. Take care that you do not perform any
button operations or move the watch during this time.

1,500 kilometers (930 miles) from the Mainflingen (Germany) or Rugby (England)
transmitter.
• At distances further than about 500 kilometers (310 miles) from the Mainflingen
(Germany) or Rugby (England) transmitter, signal reception may not be possible
during certain times of year or times of day. Radio interferance may also cause
problems with reception.
