I'm going with NY city time but when I set it, the UTC is one hour behind. I decided to set all of the time zone with daylight city time but when I do that my time zone (NY city) is one hour ahead. It goes back and forth.
Anyone know if this problem can be solved or is the watch too old to adapt to our new (one week adjusted) daylight savings time.
You posted this in January, which is not during daylight savings time. The SMT setting doesn't turn on automatic DST switching for a particular timezone; rather, it is a manual override to adjust timezones to DST when it is actually active. There is no automatic DST adjustment for this watch (according to their FAQ). Turn SMT to OF for all timezones during winter months, and ON for applicable timezones during SuMmer Time (SMT).
From what I am able to conclude, you should set UTC time to correct time (Goolge "UTC time" to get it) Then each timezone has to be adjusted manually when DST comes. So in November set all cities to OFF. Then in March you have to look up which cities observe DST and set them to ON again. Very inelegant.
They should have made it so you tell the watch which cities observe DST in the "Set" mode. Then in the "Time" mode you would turn DST On or OFF, and it would affect the time only for cities that are set to observe DST. This watch does not work that way. Frustrating.
Your UTC Time is the the same as London time. So set your UTC time what ever time it is in London. Once you do that the watch automatically knows the other time zones. Day light savings should be set if applies. See if that works
