Cool GPS lock after travelling long distance

I have a problem with my X9i watch. When I first bought it in Sydney it didn't want to lock on to the GPS satellites however long I left it outside with a clear view of the sky.

Then I went to Kuala Lumpur and it did eventually lock on.

Then on returning to Sydney it locked on OK.

But after that on a trip to the UK it refused to lock on again despite having a very clear view of the sky and waiting about 30 mins!

On my Garmin handheld GPS is asks you the question "have you moved hundreds of miles/kms since last use?".

Is there some way to tell the X9i that it has moved a long way to help it?
