• The UTC differential indicates the time differential with Greenwich, England.
• The letters UTC is the abbreviation for Coordinated Universal Time, which is the
world-wide scientific standard of timekeeping. It is based upon carefully maintained
atomic (cesium) clocks that keep time accurately to within microseconds. Leap
seconds are added or subtracted as necessary to keep UTC in sync with the Earth’s
rotation.
• The lunitidal interval is the time elapsing between the Moon’s transit over a meridian
and the next high tide at that meridian. See “Lunitidal Interval” for more information.
• This watch displays lunitidal intervals in terms of hours and minutes.
• The “Site/Lunitidal Interval Data List” provides UTC differential and longitude
information around the world.
• The following is the initial factory default Home Site data (Tokyo, Japan) when you
first purchase the watch and whenever you have the battery replaced. Change these
settings to match the area where you normally use the watch.
UTC differential (+9.0); Longitude (East 140 degrees); Lunitidal interval (5 hours,
20 minutes)
