Congratulations on purchasing your TIMEX
®
watch. Please read these
instructions carefully to understand how to operate your Timex timepiece. Your
watch may not have all of the features described in this booklet.
For more information, please visit: Timex.com
HOW TO START YOUR WATCH
To start your watch, remove the plastic guard from under the crown
(if applies), set the Time and Date (if applies), then press the crown in against
the case (position A). Slowly turn the crown clock-wise until you feel resistance.
You should hear the watch “ticking” and the second hand will begin to move.
As you wear the watch the movement of your wrist will wind the movement
automatically. If the watch is worn daily the movement will retain enough energy
to prevent the watch from stopping. If the watch stops due to non-wear, follow
the instructions to set the Time and Date (if applies), and wind to start the
watch again.
WATER AND SHOCK RESISTANCE
If your watch is water-resistant, meter marking or (O) is indicated
Water-Resistance Depth p.s.i.a. * Water Pressure Below Surface
30m/98ft 60
50m/164ft 86
100m/328ft 160
*pounds per square inch absolute
WARNING: TO MAINTAIN WATER-RESISTANCE, DO NOT PRESS ANY
BUTTONS UNDER WATER.
1. Watch is water-resistant only as long as crystal, crown and case remain
intact.
2. Watch is not a diver watch and should not be used for diving.
3. Rinse watch with fresh water after exposure to salt water.
4. Shock-resistance will be indicated on the watch face or caseback. Watches
are designed to pass ISO test for shock-resistance. However, care should be
taken to avoid damaging the crystal.
TO SET TIME
1. PULL crown to position C and turn until the hour and minute hands display
the correct time. Note correct time of day (A.M. or P.M.) for proper date
function (if applies). The date will advance between 9:00 PM and 1:00 AM
2. Push crown to position A.
TO SET DATE, DAY (IF APPLIES)
1. PULL crown to position B and turn COUNTER-CLOCKWISE until correct
day appears. Turn CLOCKWISE until the correct day of the week appears.
Note: if the date is set between the hours of around 9:00 PM and 1:00 AM,
the date may not change the following day. If this occurs, reset the Time and
Date at any other time than between the hours of around 9:00 PM and 1:00
AM to ensure proper date function.
2. Push crown to position A.

TRUE GMT
GMT watches in which the hour hand is independently adjustable
are often referred to as a true GMT. Please follow the instructions
below to determine if your watch falls into this movement type.
SETTING THE TIME, DATE AND GMT HAND:
NOTE: BEFORE SETTING THIS WATCH, DETERMINE IF YOUR WATCH
IS EQUIPPED WITH A SCREW-DOWN CROWN. GENTLY ATTEMPT TO
PULL THE CROWN OUT FROM THE CASE. IF THERE IS RESISTANCE,
IT IS LIKELY YOUR WATCH DOES HAVE A SCREW-DOWN CROWN.
TO UNLOCK SCREW-DOWN CROWN, GENTLY TURN CROWN UNTIL
IT RELEASES FROM CASE. AFTER WATCH IS SET, TO LOCK THE
CROWN GENTLY PUSH AND TURN THE CROWN UNTIL IT IS FIRMLY
LOCKED AGAINST THE CASE.
The prescribed method to set this type of watch is to use crown position C to
set the GMT hand and the minutes within the hour to your “home” time zone.
Then use the crown position B to adjust the hour hand and the date to your
2nd or “current” time zone. You will also be able to quickly adjust the hour hand
to any new destinations, if your travel takes you thru multiple time zones, using
the crown in position B to adjust the hour hand independently.
1. Crown position A (completely pushed in or the “unlocked” screw-down
crown) will allow you to manually wind the watch movement if you wish to
do so.
2. Crown position B is used to adjust the hour hand, independent of the
other hands and is also used to adjust the date.
A. Turning the crown clockwise will adjust the hour hand and the date
backwards.
B. Turning the crown counter-clockwise will adjust the hour hand and the date
forwards.
3. Crown position C is used to adjust the hour hand and minute hands in
unison and is also used to adjust the GMT hand. When setting the time, make
note of Noon and Midnight to ensure you are setting the time correctly. If the
date is changing in the middle of the day, you will need to adjust the time 12
hours ahead and reset the date to display the current date.
A. Turning the crown clockwise will adjust all hands and date backwards.
B. Turning the crown counter-clockwise will adjust all hands and date forwards.
When setting the GMT hand, you will look at the index track along the edge of
the dial. You will note that this track is 0 to 24 hours. The GMT hand will only
travel the dial once every 24 hours. Select the correct position to display the
current time in the 2nd time zone you wish to track.
4. After setting the watch to the desired time, date and 2nd time
zone push the crown in to position A, and if applies, return the
screw-down crown to the locked position.
OFFICE GMT
GMT watches in which the hour hand is geared to be set along with the minute
hand, as you would with a standard analog watch are often referred to as an
office GMT. Please follow the instructions below to determine if your watch falls
into this movement type.
SETTING THE TIME, DATE AND GMT HAND:
NOTE: BEFORE SETTING THIS WATCH, DETERMINE IF YOUR WATCH
IS EQUIPPED WITH A SCREW-DOWN CROWN. GENTLY ATTEMPT TO
PUT THE CROWN OUT FROM THE CASE. IF THERE IS RESISTANCE,
IT IS LIKELY YOU WATCH DOES HAVE A SCREW-DOWN CROWN. TO
