I have a number of these Casio and Citizen watches. This watch does not use GPS for the time keeping. It uses a land based broadcast time signal. There is public information about where the signals come from for your area. The technical breakdown of the time code signal is public access information.

The instruction manual of the watch has the information about when your watch should automatically receive the time signal, and how to set up the watch. Many of the manuals also included a map showing the time signal coverage, and includes the time of day information to show when the signal is strongest.

Make sure the watch settings are for your time zone. This is important. If the main time zone is not for your area it will be trying to receive the signal at the wrong frequency at the wrong time of day. There are areas where the signal may not be able to be received. You can get the mapping for this from the service that the watch has been set to use.

In North America the auto time receive is supposed to take place between midnight 00:00 to 04:00. In the eastern part of North America the reception is poor compared to central and western part of North America. Check the instruction manual for your watch for details.

Below is the spec listing of your watch.

Wvq 200ha Waveceptor features and settings. Do I just wait for auto reset. Is their a time zone setting

Hi,
Casio are very good at providing manuals. I assume your model is the WVQ200HLA - if that's the case go to http://www.casio.com/products/watches/wave-ceptor/wvq200hla-7bv
and you'll see a link at the bottom of the page to download a PDF manual. If that's not the correct model, then go to
http://waveceptor.casio.com/support/manual/http://waveceptor.casio.com/support/manual/
OK?

Casio Waveceptor 2734 WVA-105H watch not working

You can use the manual to manually reset the time. After you succeed in setting UK time zone, wait until midgnigth: it should synchronize itself with the time signal from Germany. If unsuccessful to do so, it will keep attempting to synchronize itself at 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.

Read the manual to figure out how to place the watch on a window sill. It might be better to be outside.
Keep in mind that the success of the operation depends on meteorological conditions.
Good Luck.
