How to Set Time on an Armitron Watch
Setting the time on an Armitron watch is a straightforward process that can be done in just a few simple steps. Whether you’ve recently purchased a new Armitron watch or need to adjust the time due to daylight saving changes, this guide will walk you through the process of setting the time on your Armitron timepiece.
1. Locate the Crown
The first step in setting the time on your Armitron watch is to locate the crown. The crown is typically located at the 3 o’clock position on the watch face. It may be a small, slender crown or a larger, more prominent one, depending on the model of your Armitron watch.
2. Push the Crown
Once you’ve found the crown, gently push it in. This action will unlock the watch’s setting mode. Be careful not to push it in too hard, as this may damage the internal components of the watch.
3. Rotate the Crown
With the crown pushed in, rotate it clockwise or counterclockwise to adjust the hour hand. As you rotate the crown, the hour hand will move in the corresponding direction. Continue rotating the crown until the hour hand reaches the correct hour.
4. Set the Minutes
After setting the hour, rotate the crown counterclockwise to adjust the minute hand. Rotate the crown until the minute hand reaches the desired minute mark.
5. Reset the Day and Date (if applicable)
Some Armitron watches have a day and date feature that needs to be set separately. If your watch has this feature, locate the day and date button or crown, which is usually located at the 4 or 5 o’clock position. Push the button or rotate the crown to set the correct day and date.
6. Lock the Crown
Once you’ve set the time and date, gently pull the crown out to lock it in place. This will prevent the time and date from accidentally being changed.
7. Test the Watch
After setting the time, take a moment to test the watch by pressing the start button (if applicable) or by checking the time against a clock or smartphone. If the watch is working correctly, you’ve successfully set the time on your Armitron watch.
By following these simple steps, you can easily set the time on your Armitron watch and ensure that it always displays the correct time. If you encounter any issues or have further questions about your Armitron watch, consult the user manual or contact Armitron customer service for assistance.
