What is the function of the left dial on a Casio G-Shock Atomic Solar watch model 2688?

Answer

It represents time in five minute increments. There are twelve blocks that get filled in as the five minutes go by. It can almost be used as a regular face on a watch to tell how much of an hour has gone by.

That is correct for the larger dial to the left on a 2688 Module, the remaining two smaller dials to the right are for the following functions. The center one is dedicated to battery strength, The lower bottom bar is the normal indicator, then above it is split into three sections for the upper half. From left to right you will see three letter's, L for low, M for medium, and H for high, all watch functions are available on HIGH.

The last smaller dial to the right of the center one is for six functions as indicators. It is split into six equal sections. Starting at the the top of the dial and taking the first section from the "12" o'clock position, and moving clockwise, they are in this order as indicators, SIG, for hourly signal, ALM for alarms indicator, SNZ is for alarm snooze indicator, AUTO EL, is the auto electro-luminescent feature to indicate off or on status, SPL is for split time on stopwatch to record two finish times and last coming back to the "12" o'clock position is DST, this indicates if you have daylight savings time on or off.

The Casio Manuals do not explain these features that well as most manuals default to the 2608 watch module as a generic printed paper instruction booklet.

Just thought I would save some folks from having to use a magnifying glass.
