4. Hold down A for about three seconds until the watch beeps.
x This will make the World Time City (NYC in this example) your new Home City.
At the same time, it will change the Home City you had selected prior to step 4
(TYO in this example), to your World Time City.
x After swapping the Home City and World Time City, the watch will stay in the
World Time Mode. The
x
Second Hand will point to your new World Time City
(TYO in this example).
Note
x If your current World Time City supports time calibration signal reception, making it
your Home City enables calibration signal reception for that city.
E-67
To swap your Home City and World Time City
1. In the World Time Mode, pull out the crown.
2. Rotate the crown to move the
x
Second Hand to the city
you want to select as your World Time City.
x In this example, you would move the
x
Second Hand
to NYC in order to select New York as the World
Time City.
x Wait until the
z
Hour Hand and
c
Minute Hand
complete their move to the time in the currently
selected World Time City. You will not be able to
perform step 4 of this procedure until the hands stop
moving.

Time Mode.
Swapping your Home City and World Time City
You can use the procedure below to swap your Home City and World Time City. This
capability can come in handy when you frequently travel between two locations in
different time zones.
The following example shows what happens when the
Home City and World Time City are swapped while the
Home City originally is TYO (Tokyo) and the World Time
City is NYC (New York).

3. Rotate the crown to move the
x
Second Hand to the city code you want to select
as the World Time City.
x Each time you select a city code, the
z
Hour Hand,
c
Minute Hand, and
n
Day
Indicator move to the current time and day for that city code. For details about
city codes, see the “City Code Table” at the back of this manual.
x If you think that the time indicated for the selected World Time City is not correct,
it probably means that there is something wrong with your Home City settings.
Use the procedure under “To confi gure Home City settings” (page E-36) to correct
the Home City settings.

pulling it out, crown operations will become disabled and the watch hands will no
longer move when you rotate the crown. If this happens, push the crown back in
and then pull it out again.

Storage
x The precision of the bearing sensor may deteriorate if the watch becomes
magnetized. Because of this, you should store the watch away from magnets or
any other sources of strong magnetism, including: permanent magnets (magnetic
necklaces, etc.) and household appliances (TVs, personal computers, washing
machines, freezers, etc.).
x Whenever you suspect that the watch may have become magnetized, perform the
procedure under “To perform bidirectional calibration” (page E-56).
E-61
Location
x Taking a direction reading when you are near a source of strong magnetism can
cause large errors in readings. Because of this, you should avoid taking direction
readings while in the vicinity of the following types of objects: permanent magnets
(magnetic necklaces, etc.), concentrations of metal (metal doors, lockers, etc.),
high tension wires, aerial wires, household appliances (TVs, personal computers,
washing machines, freezers, etc.).
x Accurate direction readings are impossible while in a train, boat, air plane, etc.
x Accurate readings are also impossible indoors, especially inside ferroconcrete
structures. This is because the metal framework of such structures picks up
magnetism from appliances, etc.
E-60
Digital Compass Precautions
Magnetic North and True North
The northerly direction can be expressed either as
magnetic north or true north, which are different from
each other. Also, it is important to keep in mind that
magnetic north moves over time.
x Magnetic north is the north that is indicated by the
needle of a compass.
x True north, which is the location of the North Pole of
the Earth’s axis, is the north that is normally indicated
on maps.
x The difference between magnetic north and true north
is called the “declination”. The closer you get to the
North Pole, the greater the declination angle.
