12-hour hand
The time indicated by the hour hand and minute hand (Dual Time) can be set to the
time you want without stopping watch operation.
You can set the 12-hour and 24-hour hands to your basic time (the current time in the
time zone where you normally use the watch), and change the hour hand to any
other time (Dual Time) you want (current time in a city you are visiting, etc.).
When setting the time, make sure that the date setting is correct. If it isn’t, correct the
date setting.

1. As the second hand reaches the 12 o’clock position, pull the crown out to the
second click. This will cause the second hand to stop.
2. Rotate the crown to move the minute hand to adjust the 12-hour hand, 24-hour
hand and minute hand. Though the minute, hour, 12-hour, and 24-hour hand
movements are coordinated with each other, the hour hand can be moved
independently to indicate a second time (Dual Time). For more information about
setting the hour hand, see “To adjust the hour hand setting (Dual Time)” below.
• Carefully set the time, making sure to distinguish between AM and PM.
3. Push the crown back in to the normal position to restart timekeeping.

the direction of the arrow in the illustration).
• Avoid changing the day setting while the hour hand
time is between 9:00 p.m. and 1:00 a.m.
3. Push the crown back in to the normal position.
Using the Stopwatch
The stopwatch lets you measure elapsed time up to 59

Notes:
• Do not try to perform stopwatch operations while the crown is pulled out either to
the first or second click.
• If the starting positions of the stopwatch minute hand and second hand become
misaligned, use the following procedures to adjust the positions of the hands so
they point to 12 o’clock when the stopwatch is reset.

■ For a watch with an elapsed time bezel
Rotate the elapsed time bezel to align the
mark with the
minute hand.
After certain amount of time elapsed, read the graduation on
the elapsed time bezel which the minute hand points to.
The elapsed time is indicated.
• Some water resistant models are equipped with a screw lock
crown.
• With such models, you must unscrew the crown in the
direction noted in the illustration to loosen it before you can
pull it out. Do not pull too forcibly on such crowns.
• Also note that such watches are not water resistant while
their crowns are loosened. Be sure to screw the crowns
back in as far as they will go after making any setting.
