TO SET THE SECOND TIME ZONE:
1. Pull crown to its middle position. The upper hand 
shows the second time zone time and the 4th center 
hand shows the minutes. 
2.  Assuming that the second time zone time has the 
same minutes value as the first time zone, the 4th 
center hand should be aligned with the minute hand.  
If the hands are not aligned, or if your second time 
zone is a different minute within the hour, press 
Button B to move the 4th center hand forward until  
it is in the desired position.
3.  Press Button A to move the upper hand forward in 
one-hour increments until it reaches desired second 
time zone hour. To move the hand quickly, press and 
hold Button A.
4.  Push the crown in when finished.
SECOND TIME ZONE
The upper hand shows the time for the second time 
zone. Note that the scale is 24-hours, with midnight at 
either end and noon in 
the middle. Most often, 
time zones differ in hour 
increments. In such 
cases, the minute value 
of the second time zone 
will be the same as that 
displayed by the watch’s 
minute hand.

2. Press B to move the 4th center hand forward. Hold the 
button to move the hand quickly. The upper and 4th 
center hands move together; as the 4th center hand 
makes one revolution, the upper hand moves one 
hour. Assuming that the second time zone time has 
the same minutes value as your first time zone, the 
4th center and minute hands should be aligned.
3.  Press A to move the upper hand forward in one-hour 
increments. Hold the button to move the hand quickly.
4.  Push the crown in when finished. 
The second time zone time can alternatively be used to 
display your home time on a 24-hour format, if you prefer. 
When setting the second time in this manner, ensure 
that the hour/minute display corresponds to the 24-hour 
display by verifying that the date changes at midnight, 
not noon.
SECOND TIME ZONE 
The upper hand normally shows the time for the second 
time zone. Note that the scale is 24 hours, with midnight 
at either end and noon in the middle.
To set the second time zone time:
1. 
Pull the crown to its 
middle position. The 
upper hand shows 
the second time zone 
time in military hours 
and the 4th center 
hand shows the 
minutes.

2. To stop, press A again (START/STOP). All hands freeze.
3.  To resume, press A (START/STOP) again, or to reset the 
chronograph to zero, press B (FLY-BACK/RESET). 
  When the chronograph is reset, all hands move to 
zero. After eight seconds, the watch resumes the 
normal display of the second time zone time.
4.  You may also reset and/or restart the chronograph 
while it is running. To do so, press and hold B (FLY-
BACK/RESET) to zero the chronograph and release it 
when you wish to restart. You do not have to wait for 
all hands to reach zero before releasing the button; 
the timing will start internally from the button release. 
This “fly-back” feature allows you to measure lap time.
  The compass may be used while the chronograph is 
running without interfering with its operation. See 
COMPASS OPERATION.

COMPASS CALIBRATION
Before use, the compass must be calibrated.
Since a compass uses the earth’s magnetic field, you 
must be aware of large metallic objects, such as vehicles 
or bridges, or objects that give off electromagnetic 
radiation, such as televisions or computers, which 
could affect the magnetic field around the watch. If the 
compass is calibrated near such objects, it will only 
work properly in that same location. If the compass 
is calibrated away from such objects, it will not work 
properly near them. For best results, calibrate in the area 
of intended use.
In calibrating and taking headings, it is important, as with 
all compasses, to keep the compass level. Calibrating or 
taking a heading when the watch is not level can result 
in large errors. Also avoid areas that may exhibit higher than normal concentrations of hard and soft iron, as they 
may cause inaccurate headings. Whenever a heading is 
suspect, recalibrate. 
Do not store the watch near any source of magnetism, 
such as a computer, appliance, or television, as the 
watch can take on a magnetic charge, yielding inaccurate 
headings. Typical accuracy of wrist-worn instruments is 
within +/- 10 degrees.
To calibrate the compass:
1. 
Pull the crown to its middle position and wait for the 
indicator hands to stop moving.
2.  Keep the watch level or place it on a level surface (if 
the band interferes, place the watch on an inverted 
cup). The watch may be face down, but take care to 
protect the watch face.

5. If you do not wish to set the magnetic declination, 
push the crown in. Otherwise, to have watch 
automatically compensate for the declination angle, 
turn the compass ring until north is at 12 o’clock.
6.  Press A or B to move the 4th center hand west (-) 
or east (+), respectively, to point to your location’s 
declination angle using the declination scale. Hold a 
button to move the hand quickly. See the figure below 
for an example. 
7.  Push the crown in when done.

B
Magnetic declination set to -14° (14°W)
3. 
Press C (COMPASS) to begin. The 4th center hand 
rotates two revolutions to remind you to rotate the 
watch. While level, SLOWLY rotate the watch two 
revolutions, taking at least 15 seconds per revolution.
 
4. When done, press C (COMPASS), keeping the watch 
level. The 4th center hand moves back and forth to 
acknowledge the end of calibration and then moves to 
the current magnetic declination setting.

available through buttons A (START/STOP) and B (FLY-
BACK/RESET).
NOTE: During compass operation, the second hand 
moves in two-second increments. Also, when the 
compass is activated, the upper and lower hands may 
shift position slightly, returning to their proper positions 
when the compass is deactivated. This operation is 
normal and yields the most accurate compass reading.
COMPASS OPERATION
Normally, the compass is inactive, with the 4th center 
hand pointing to 12 o’clock or showing the chronograph 
seconds.
While holding the watch level, press C (COMPASS) to 
activate the compass. The compass hand moves to 
point north. If the watch is turned, the 4th center hand 
will continue to move, always pointing north. After 20 
seconds, the compass will automatically turn off and the 
4th center hand will return to its normal operation. This 
conserves battery life. Press C (COMPASS) at any time to 
keep the compass on for another 20 seconds.
The compass may be activated while the chronograph is 
in use. The 4th center hand merely switches operation 
temporarily. The upper and lower hands continue to show 
the chronograph time and all chronograph functions are

LINEAR CHRONOGRAPH OVERVIEWLINEAR AND 4TH CENTER HAND ADJUSTMENT 
To readjust a misaligned 4th center hand: 
1. 
Pull the crown to its outer position. The lower hand 
resets to the end of its sweep automatically. 
2.  4th center hand should point to 12 o’clock. If within 
5 seconds of pulling the crown to its outer position the 
4th center hand does not point to 12 o’clock, press 
Button A to move the hand clockwise until it points to 
12 o’clock.
3.  If the chronograph has been reset and the linear hand 
is not pointing to zero, press and hold Button B for 
5 seconds to engage a full calibration of the linear 
indicator, which will take up to 32 seconds to perform. 
4.  Push crown to closed position when finished.

SECOND TIME ZONE
The lower hand 
shows the time for 
the second time zone. 
Note that the scale 
is 24-hours, with 
midnight at either 
end and noon in the 
middle. Most often, 
time zones differ in 
hour increments. 
In such cases, the 
minute value of the second time zone will be the same as 
that displayed by the watch’s minute hand. TO SET THE SECOND TIME ZONE: 
1.  
Pull crown to its middle position. The lower hand 
shows the second time zone time and the 4th center 
hand shows the minutes.
2.   Assuming that the second time zone time has the 
same minutes value as the first time zone, the 4th 
center hand should be aligned with the minute hand. If 
the hands are not aligned, or if your second time zone 
is a different minute within the hour, press Button B 
to move the 4th center hand forward until it is in the 
desired position.
3.   Press Button A to move the lower hand forward in 
one-hour increments until it reaches desired second 
time zone hour. To move the hand quickly, press and 
hold Button A.
