Cauto Cristo is located 674 km south-east of Havana, so Dhuhr in Cauto Cristo is called roughly 24 minutes earlier than in Havana. The gap is due to longitude: every degree of longitude shifts solar noon by about four minutes, and that is why the timetable of the capital should not be used in Cauto Cristo.
