?Quoting from the link above:

?"The Timex Expedition Indiglo wristwatch tells the time and date, illuminates at the press of a button, and can wake you up at a designated time. Once you receive and adjust your watch to your liking, you might have questions about how to program the date properly. You’ll want to have an accurate watch before wearing and relying on it throughout your day in class, at work or while exercising. You can set the date on your watch with a few simple steps.
Pull the plastic guard from beneath the crown knob (located on the right edge of the watch), and push the crown knob into the watch to start your watch. You will see the second hand begin to advance.
Pull the crown knob out to the middle position to set the day. The crown knob has three positions: “In,” “Middle” and “Out.” Turn the crown knob clockwise to advance the days up, until the current day appears in the window on the right side of the watch face. Turn the knob counterclockwise to move the date down in number. Push the crown knob all the way in to start the watch.
Pull the crown knob completely out, if the day doesn’t change with the knob in the middle position, and cycle the time backward or forward through 24-hour periods until you arrive at the current day. Push the knob in to start the watch.
Pull the crown out to the middle position and adjust your date to the next month for months that have less than 30 days. Your watch will cycle through 31 days every month, so manual adjustments for shorter months are required."

Gently pull the middle button, (or 'crown'), outwards away from the side of the watch. It won't move very far but if you do it slowly and gently you should feel it move 2 clicks or 'notches'. Pull to the first 'notch' for the Date settings and the second for the Time settings. For the date twist one way for the day of the week and twist the opposite way for the date number. Pull the crown out to the 2nd 'notch' and you can move the hands to the correct time. Push the crown all the way back In when you have finished doing any of these settings.

de button on the side of the watch got 3 stands:
- totally to the left is nothing
- totally to the right is set time/hours/days
- in the middle set date.

One of the dials should be seconds so you won't be setting that, the other two should be day and date, when you pull the stem and crown all the way out you can set the time there is a halfway setting ( pull the stem halfway out) if you turn one way it's the day of the week the other way is the date. Hope this helps! Also what appears to be a second hand on the dial a lot of times is actually a stopwatch.

does your watch has a strap with N,E,S, W printed on it? Normally, it is located on the bottom side of your watch. If you tilt your watch, the direction will be pointed towards that direction. Consult Cote d\'Azur if you have that on your watch...

Are you shure you CAN set the date? Most of these watches are fake. I got one at a NCL cruise. For its price, it's fake. So it is not fully functionally. It only shows the time. The date mark is not real on my watch

I figured it out...thanx

The only model I am familiar with sets by pulling out the crown and rotating the crown to set the time.
For an instruction book you would need to go through Esprit or find a store location that carries their product.

Company info and store locations can be found on their website.

if you take this watch apart and look at the backside, the side buttons are not connected. and there are NO workings for the "neet" time, date and hr hands, so the ONLY setting the watch has is the time. pop the back off and see for yourself, you can also buy these watches on EBAY for 5.00
good luck

The three buttons are the Chronograph start button (top), Crown (middle), and chronograph reset (bottom).
To set the watch pull the crown out to the first position and turn it until it is on the right time.
To set the date pull the crown out to the second position and rotate until you have the right date.
Be sure that when you set the time that you are in the right AM or PM. DO this by watching when the date turns at the 12:00 position. The date changes at midnight so that would be AM.
