I can get the date to change, but the day is stuck even when winding it 24 hours. I can change the date on the 2nd stem setting, too, but I can't figure out the day. It seems like the day is stuck. I have tried putting it at 1am and then winding backwards to past 7:30 and it wants to move, but snaps back to the same day. Help, please!?
SOURCE: Date and time on my new watch do not change
mcdevito75 here, Sounds like part of the mechanism has broken in your Timex watch, and, if so too repair it may cost twice a new Timex watch, chances are this is why watch shops have told you to return the watch to Timex, and without a warrantee, even timex will charge for the repair. Ask the watch repair shop straight out if it pays to repair your watch, chances are no. Also you can try to contact Timex online at Timex watch.com or by phone.
Testimonial: "Thanks. I'm going to dig up the credit card receipt and take it back. I have another Timex that advertises 50 meter water resistance, I showered with it on and it's all steamed up. This will be it for me and Timex watches. Quality control seems to be lacking."
SOURCE: when I pull out the stem 1 notch I can only change
Try turning the stem the opposite direction. The last watch I had with that feature required a clockwise turn to advance the time or date and a counter clockwise turn to change the day of the week.

Turning it backwards didn't work on my watch. I ended up winding the time ahead several days worth to show the right day of the week (being careful to turn it to the correct 9 o'clock of the day, for me is was the first for morning.) Then I could go ahead and change the date using the first click postition of the stem.
I see that light bulb going off and you whispering "why, of course!"
