DST is observed in most of the United States, Canada, and Mexico. It is also observed in some European countries, Australia, and New Zealand.

3. Tips for Setting Your G-Shock Watch for Daylight Savings Time

Setting your G-Shock watch for daylight savings time is a simple process, but there are a few things you need to know in order to do it correctly. Here are a few tips to help you get the job done:

You can check the time zone setting on your watch by pressing the Mode button until you see the “TZ” indicator. The time zone is displayed in the upper left corner of the display.
  • Set your watch to the correct time before daylight savings time begins. Daylight savings time begins at 2:00 a.m. local time on the second Sunday in March. Make sure your watch is set to the correct time before this time, so that it will automatically adjust for daylight savings time.
  • Turn off the auto DST setting if you do not want your watch to adjust for daylight savings time automatically. Some G-Shock watches have an auto DST setting that automatically adjusts the watch for daylight savings time. If you do not want your watch to adjust for daylight savings time automatically, you can turn off this setting. To turn off the auto DST setting, press the Mode button until you see the “DST” indicator. Press the Adjust button to toggle the setting off.

Once you have set your watch for daylight savings time, it will automatically adjust for the next change in time. You do not need to do anything else.
