Home Site Data Moon phase, tide graph data, and Moon/Tide Data Mode data will
not be displayed properly unless Home Site data (UTC differential, longitude,
and lunitidal interval) is configured correctly. x The UTC differential is a
value that indicates the time difference between a
reference point in Greenwich, England and the time zone where a city is
located. x 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. x 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” (page EN-45) for more information. x This
watch displays lunitidal intervals in terms of hours and minutes. x The
“Site/Lunitidal Interval Data List” at the back of this manual provides UTC
differential and longitude information around the world.

Tidal Movements
Tides are the periodic rise and fall of the water of oceans, seas, bays, and
other bodies of water caused mainly by the gravitational interactions between
the Earth, Moon and Sun. Tides rise and fall about every six hours. The tide
graph of this watch indicates tidal movement based on the Moon’s transit over
a meridian and the lunitidal interval. The lunitidal interval differs
according to your current location, so you must specify a lunitidal interval
in order to obtain the correct tide graph readings.

Graphic Area What the graphic display shows depends on the current watch mode.

x The Moon phase indicator shows the Moon as viewed at noon from a position in
the Northern Hemisphere looking south. Note that at times the image shown by
the Moon phase indicator may differ from that of the actual Moon in your area.
x The left-right orientation of the Moon phase is reversed when viewing from
the Southern Hemisphere or from a point near the equator.
Moon Phases and Moon Age The Moon goes through a regular 29.53-day cycle.
During each cycle, the Moon appears to wax and wane as the relative
positioning of the Earth, Moon, and Sun changes.
EN-43
x The tide graph displayed by this watch is based on the current Moon age.
Remember that the margin for error of the Moon age displayed by this watch is
±1 day. The greater the error in a particular Moon age, the greater the error
in the resulting tide graph.
Lunitidal Interval Theoretically, high tide is at the Moon’s transit over the
meridian and low tide is about six hours later. Actual high tide occurs
somewhat later, due to factors such as viscosity, friction, and underwater
topography. Both the time differential between the Moon’s transit over the
meridian until high tide and the time differential between the Moon’s transit
over the meridian until low tide are known as the “lunitidal interval”. When
setting the lunitidal interval for this watch, use the time differential
between the Moon’s transit over the meridian until high tide.

Timekeeping x Resetting the seconds to 00 while the current count is in the
range of 30 to 59
causes the minutes to be increased by 1. In the range of 00 to 29, the seconds
are reset to 00 without changing the minutes. x The year can be set in the
range of 2000 to 2099. x The watch’s built-in full automatic calendar makes
allowances for different month lengths and leap years. Once you set the date,
there should be no reason to change it except after you have the watch’s
battery replaced.
Illumination Precautions x Illumination may be difficult to see when viewed
under direct sunlight. x Illumination turns off automatically whenever an
alarm sounds. x Frequent use of illumination runs down the battery.
