Hard. You can find elevated ground with no surrounding buildings and it can work sometimes but it is a bit broken.

Easiest way is to get an app that mimics the signal but it's a bit silly. I just don't bother using it. G Shock generally just relies on Bluetooth these days to sync with your phone which makes a lot of sense.

Nevertheless, it is still a great horological technology of which the watch needs not rely on another device to correct to 100% accuracy. ☺

You can download this android app called "radio watch sync". It can mimic the radio signal from Japan or USA etc.
