Crown Operation
–Models Equipped with a Crown Cover–
<Opening and Closing the Crown Cover>
Insert your fingernail between the case and crown cover and open
the crown cover so that it opens to the outside.
* Always make sure to close the crown cover after operating the
crown.
<Important Point when Turning the Crown for Setting
Time and Date, Correcting Time Difference or Setting
Reference Position>
Although the crown can be operated by turn-
ing while pinching between your fingers or fin-
gernails (Fig. 1), the crown can be turned more
easily by turning while pressing against the
crown with the thick portion of your finger
(Fig. 2).
* Please refer to the manual for information
on the procedures for setting the time and
date, correcting time difference and setting
the reference position.

This watch is a solar-powered watch that contains a solar cell in its face that drives
the watch by converting light energy into electrical energy.
It is equipped with numerous functions including a virtual calendar that changes
the date automatically (day, month and year change automatically through Febru-
ary 28, 2100 even in leap years), a time difference correction function that makes it
possible to easily change the time difference without stopping the watch, and a
power save function that reduces current consumption when the solar cell is not
exposed to light.
A secondary battery is used in this watch to store electrical energy. This secondary
battery is a clean energy battery that does not contain mercury or other toxic sub-
stances. Once fully charged, the watch circuit will continue to keep time for about
5 years without additional charging (when the power save 2 function is operating).
<Proper Use of this Watch>
To use this watch comfortably, make sure to recharge it before it stops running
completely. Since there is no risk of overcharging (Overcharging Prevention Func-
tion) no matter how much the watch is charged, it is recommended that the watch
be recharged everyday.
This watch is a solar-powered watch. Make sure to charge the watch prior to
use by adequately exposing it to light.

[Setting the Time]
1. When the crown is pulled out to the second click (time setting position), the
second hand rapidly advances to the 0 seconds position and stops.
Note: Align the hands at the reference position after performing the all-reset pro-
cedure when the second hand does not stop at the 0 seconds position.
2. Turn the crown and set the time.
(1) When the crown is turned to the right, the hour and minute hands move
forward (clockwise).
(2) When the crown is turned to the left, the hour and minute hands move back-
ward (counter-clockwise).
* Turning the crown continuously causes the hands to advance rapidly. Turn the
crown to either the left or right to stop the hands from advancing rapidly.
Note (1): When correcting in the forward direction, the date changes when the
hour and minute hands indicate 12:00 AM. However, when the date is
changed in the case the hands are advancing rapidly, the hour and minute
hands pause at 12:00 AM and then resume advancing rapidly after the
date has changed.
(2): When correcting in the backward direction, the date does not change
even if the hour and minute hands pass 12:00 AM.
3. Return the crown to the normal position in synchronization with a telephone
time signal or other time service.

[Setting the Date]
This watch is provided with a virtual calendar function. Once it is set, the year,
month and date change automatically, including leap years.
1. When the crown is pulled out to the first click (calendar correction position), the
second hand moves to the year and month position stored in memory and stops.
2. Turn the crown and set the date.
(1) Turn the crown to the right to set the second hand to the position correspond-
ing to the year (number of years elapsed since the most recent leap year) and
month. Turning the crown continuously causes the second hand to advance
rapidly.
Examples:
* In the case of December in a leap year: Align the second hand at 0 seconds.
* In the case of April in a year that is three years after the most recent leap year:
Align the second hand at 23 seconds (between 4:00 and 5:00).
(2) The date is advanced by one day if the crown is turned to the left.
* Turning the crown continuously causes the date to be advanced continuously.
Turn the crown to either the left or right to stop the date from advancing con-
tinuously.
3. Always make sure to return the crown to the normal position after setting the
date.
The second hand advances to the current seconds and the hands begin to move.
<When Setting the Date by Continuously Turning the Crown>
The date can be set easily by stopping advancing the date rapidly two to three days
before the correct date and then advancing the date one day at a time.
<When the Date has been Set to a Date that does not Exist>
The date automatically changes to the first day of the following month when the
crown is returned to the normal position from the date correction state.
Examples:
* Normal Years:
March 1 when the date has been set to February 29, 30 or 31
October 1 when the date has been set to September 31
* Leap Years:
March 1 when the date has been set to February 30 or 31
October 1 when the date has been set to September 31

Leap year: First mark in each month zone

2 years after the most recent leap year: Third mark in each month zone
3 years after the most recent leap year: Fourth mark in each month zone
✰How to read the month:

Note (1): If the time difference is corrected in the forward direction, the date after
the hands are finished moving is corrected by +1 day when the hour and
minute hands pass 12:00 AM. Pay attention to AM and PM when cor-
recting the time difference.
(2): When returning the time difference to its original setting, return the hour
and minute hands in the opposite direction in which they were corrected.
If the time difference is corrected in the backward direction, the date
after the hands are finished moving is corrected by -1 day when the
hour and minute hands pass 12:00 AM. This takes about two minutes,
however, since the date is corrected in the forward direction.
Example: Setting the time difference of London (local time) when the time in
Tokyo (home time) is 10:00 AM:
The time difference between Tokyo and London is -9 hours. Since it is
1:00 AM in London when it is 10:00 AM in Tokyo, in the case of
correcting the time difference at this time:
1. Press button (A).
2. Turn the crown to the left to turn the hands backward (counter-clockwise) by 9
hours.
[Correcting the Time Difference]
When button (A) is pressed and the crown is turned continuously, time difference
can be corrected in 1 hour units. Time difference cannot be corrected continu-
ously.
The time difference can be corrected for 30 seconds after button (A) has been
pressed or for 30 seconds after time difference correction (after the hands finish
moving).
1. Put the crown in the normal position.
2. When button (A) is pressed, the second hand makes one revolution to indicate
that the watch is in the time difference correction state.
3. Correct the time difference by turning the crown to the right or left.
* When the crown is turned continuously to the right, the minute and hour hands
are corrected forward (clockwise) by one hour.
* When the crown is turned continuously to the left, the minute and hour hands
are corrected backward (counter-clockwise) by one hour.

The time difference cannot be corrected when the second hand is moving at
two-second intervals indicating that the watch is insufficiently charged. Cor-
rect the time difference after charging the watch by exposing it to light so that
the second hand returns to one-second interval movement.
Note: If the crown is turned to the right to move the hands clockwise to set the
time to 1:00, the time will be 1:00 PM and the calendar function will not
operate correctly, preventing the date from changing at the proper time.

1. Pull the crown out to the 1st position.
2. Turn the crown to the right while pressing

* Continue turning the crown while
pressing button (A) until the date
appears in the center of the calendar
window.
3. Return the crown to the normal position.
