Information on the Watch's Mechanics
Adjusting the time by receiving signals from GPS satellites
GPS satellites are equipped with high-precision atomic clocks with a margin of error of one second every 100,000years. Signals sent from the GPS satellite to earth contain "time information" based on the atomic clock.
With the touch of a button, this product receives signals from the GPS satellite and adjusts the time according to thefollowing information.
❏ Received from one satellite:
Exact time and date based on the atomic clock
❏ Received from multiple satellites (at least four):
Time zone information for your current location
*Unlike navigation devices, this product is not designed to constantly receive GPS satellite signals.

Note:
About GPS satellitesThe satellites are controlled by the United States Department of Defense and orbit at an altitude of 20,000 km.
Originally, these satellites were designed for military purposes, but now some of the information they send is for consumeruse and is used in a variety of devices such as car navigation systems and smart phones.
Supports the Quasi-Zenith Satellite SystemThis product supports the first Quasi-Zenith Satellite System (QZSS).
The QZSS is a system of satellites that passes directly over Japan and sends positioning signals that are very similar to currentGPS signals. This allows signals to be sent to wider areas of Japan that were previously trouble spots, such as mountainousregions, or areas with a high density of skyscrapers.
Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) and time zones
UTC is a universal, standardized time set by international accord. This is used as the official time when time is recordedaround the world.
Around the world, countries and regions use common standard times based on Coordinated universal time (UTC).
Standard times are determined by specific countries and regions, and a region that uses the same standard time iscalled a time zone.
* The time zone for each region may change depending on the circumstances of the country or region.
Daylight Saving Time (DST)
Daylight Saving Time (DST) is a system that advances standard time by one hour (or another specific time) duringlong periods of daylight, normally during summer. Also known as summer time.
This system is used in approximately 80 countries around the world, mainly in Europe and the United States, incountries at a high latitude and long daylight hours in the summer.
* The way DST is implemented may change depending on the circumstances of the country or region. Also, the period during whichthis is applied varies by country/region.

About barometer feature
The watch uses a built-in pressure sensor to measure the atmospheric pressure of the current location.
Note:This differs from the atmospheric pressure (sea level pressure) displayed in weather charts.
Notes on pressure measurements
This product is not intended for taking measurements that requires professional precision. Measurement functionreadings are intended for general reference only.
About barometric tendency❏ The barometric tendency is displayed based on the measurement results of atmospheric pressure for the past three
hours. If you continue measuring atmospheric pressure at the same location, you can use it as a guide forpredicting the weather.
❏ The barometric tendency measured and the actual barometric tendency at the measurement location may differdue to differences in altitude due to movement to different heights, or rapid changes in weather and temperature.
❏ In environments where the atmospheric pressure changes rapidly in a short period of time, such as during atyphoon, the measured barometric tendency may differ from the actual barometric pressure change.
