Time zones

Former Member over 6 years ago

Does anybody know how to change the time zone of the watch?
I travel a lot and have to change the time frequently. The two options i get to change the time are:
-manually enter the new time, or
- sync with GPS.
I do not see an option to change the time zone.
I think this is fundamental option for a watch but I cannot find it.

I am not travelling so much, so have such huge experience with this topic, but sync with gps would be sufficient and fastest/most precise way how to change time (zone too). If I need to use it often, would assing it to a button and then after getting out of plain or in taxi would push the button, done.

Somehow I resist to enter manually time or time zone, but this is just my view on that. Even when hiking and calibrating altimeter at some point where I can see that I have incorrect elevetation, always give chance to GPS first and then calibrating manualy.even if I see the real elevation.

Sveta and did you try some watch faces offering another time zones time? That may be a solution for you as well.

The watch should update automatically, but it needs to know where you are. So when you get off the plane, save your location.

Well, the sync using a GPS could be very difficult: I get off the plane and then immediately go inside the airport- no open sky.
Manual sync is giving always some inaccuracies in the range between + 59 seconds and -59 seconds, depending on when you started setting the time.
And last but no least: I work on board a vessel- we change time zones very often and we are not considering the actual time zones we are in, so I cannot rely on a GPS sync.
