Seiko Astron GPS Solar Chronograph SSE099J1
To enhance the speed and quality of the GPS connection, every component in the GPS module has been re-engineered. Thanks to the use of three independent motors for the hour, minute and second hands, Caliber requires at the fastest just three seconds* to change from one time zone to another.
It remembers when it was last successful in receiving a time signal and automatically attempts to receive a signal.
New adjustment system buckle
A new buckle adjustment system allows you to make, at the touch of a button,
minor adjustments to the length of the bracelet.

The “time transfer function” allows you to switch, simply and instantly,
The display of home and destination times between the main dial and the sub dial.Just press simultaneously on the buttons at two and four o’clock and Caliber converts the main dial display from, for example, home time to local time with a single push. The sub-dial changes from local to home time at the same time.
Automatic synchronization to the exact time.
Your Astron watch adjusts automatically to the exact time, up to twice a day. If it can see the sky, it will connect with one or more GPS satellites and re-set the time, if needed, to a precision of one second every 100,000 years*. Even if the watch cannot see
the sky, it remembers when it was last successful in receiving a time signal and automatically attempts to receive a signal.
