BC Time - Time Zone Issues

I am in BC using a Forerunner 570 47mm and am not seeing the right time. The watch keeps syncing me to PST not PDT and the sunrise/sunset and related functions are an hour off. The time zone map on my watch shows Vancouver as UTC-8. I have the newest software update too. 

Any ideas how to resolve this?

  • Hello, ! Please try the following steps:

    1. Manually sync the time on your watch:  
    2. While your watch is connecting to your paired phone or acquiring satellites, press the bottom-left button to ensure that the Time Source is set to GPS or Phone rather than Manual. 

    If the issue persists, please connect the watch to a computer and sync it with Garmin Express. Doing so can help ensure that any missing or incomplete updates are properly installed. When updating through Garmin Express, select View Details to see whether a Time Zone Map update is available for installation.

    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, can you let us know:

    • Which Time Source is currently selected (GPS, Phone, or Manual)?
    • Have you tried rebooting both the watch and your phone?
    • Does your paired phone show the correct local time and time zone?

    That information will help us determine the best next steps.
