• 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,

What is a quartz movement? Verified

Watches and clocks with a quartz movement are driven by a battery. This sends an electric current through quartz crystals that will vibrate. These vibrations are passed on to the movement. Because the vibrations have a fixed frequency, watches and clocks with a quartz movement are extremely precise.

There is moisture on the inside of the glass of my Casio watch, what should I do? Verified

Casio states that if the moisture appeared after an extreme change in temperature and disappears relatively quickly afterwards, there is probably nothing wrong. If the moisture does not disappear, you should have your watch repaired as soon as possible.
