CASE FUNCTIONS: SOLAR COMPASS FEATURE
SC COLLECTION: SC1000, SC1500
To use your SC Collection watch as a solar compass:
A. Point the hour hand at the sun. Halfway between the hour hand and
the 12:00 on the dial, is South. In the morning, find the halfway point by
going clockwise to the 12:00. In the afternoon, find the halfway point by
going counterclockwise to the 12:00. (For example: if it is 6:00 a.m., the
halfway point is 9:00. If it is 6:00 p.m., the halfway point is 3:00.
B. Now that you have determined due South, point the crown of your SC
watch to face South.
C. With the crown facing South, open the lift-up bezel and put it parallel
to the ground so that you can read the compass indicators.
D. You can now determine North, East, and West direction.
E. As in using any compass, you’ll need to keep rechecking which way is
South.
If daylight savings time is in force, point the hour marker that precedes the
hour hand at the sun and follow the same directions. (For example: if it is
8:00, point the 7:00 marker at the sun and south would be halfway between
the 9:00 and 10:00 position.)
