The table below shows moon ages and corresponding moon phases. Note that this

The moon phases shown in the above table are those as viewed on the current

The left-right orientation of the moon phase is reversed when viewing from the

The backlight of the watch employs an electro-luminescent (EL) light, which loses
illuminating power after very long use.
The illumination provided by the backlight may be hard to see when viewed under
direct sunlight.
The watch will emit an audible sound whenever the display is illuminated. This is
caused by a transformer that vibrates when the EL panel lights up. It does not
indicate malfunction of the watch.
The backlight automatically turns off whenever an alarm sounds.
