After setting the time, set the date and moon phase following the procedure below.
Also follow the procedure below to adjust the date in 30-day month or February.
(1) Pull out crown “1” to the first click.
(2) Turn crown “1” counterclockwise to set the date.
Notes:
Do not set the date and moon phase between
9:00 PM and 1:00 AM. Otherwise, they may not
change properly. If it is necessary to set them
during that time period, first move the hour hand
to any time outside it, set the date and moon
phase, and then reset the time. To move the
hour hand, refer to “Time difference adjustment
function”.
(2) After all the adjustments are completed, push crown "1" back in to the normal position.

HOW TO SET THE DATE

TIME DIFFERENCE ADJUSTMENT
The hour hand can be adjusted independently of other hands. When you travel abroad and move
between different time zones, the time of the place you visit can be shown easily on the watch by
turning the hour hand only.
The alarm hour hand can also be adjusted independently of the other hands to show the time of the
place you visit.(Refer to “Time difference adjustment of the alarm hour hand”.)
[How to determine the time difference between two cities]
Before making the time difference adjustment, it is necessary to obtain the time difference between
the two cities.
As the hour hand indicates the time on a 12 hour basis, AM/PM, the date and moon phase of the
place may not be adjusted properly even if the hour hand is turned to show the time of the place you
visit. Before setting the hand, therefore, be sure to find the time difference between the cities following
the procedure below.
How to calculate the time differences
Assuming that you move from time zone “A” to time zone “B” and that the time difference from GMT
for the two zones are “a” and “b”, respectively, time difference between them can be obtained from the
following formula:
[b] [a].
Ex.) If you move from Japan to New York:
Time difference from GMT for Japan, time zone A : 9 (a)
Time difference from GMT for New York, time zone B : 5 (b)
Time difference between the two cities is:
[b] [a] (5) (9) (14) hours
Note: If the daylight saving time is in effect in an area, add one hour to the time difference from GMT
before calculation
