Zeon calculator watch, just replaced battery CR1620, cannot set date and time, lost instructions. Can you help please.

I have a number of these Casio and Citizen watches. This watch does not use GPS for the time keeping. It uses a land based broadcast time signal. There is public information about where the signals come from for your area. The technical breakdown of the time code signal is public access information.

The instruction manual of the watch has the information about when your watch should automatically receive the time signal, and how to set up the watch. Many of the manuals also included a map showing the time signal coverage, and includes the time of day information to show when the signal is strongest.

Make sure the watch settings are for your time zone. This is important. If the main time zone is not for your area it will be trying to receive the signal at the wrong frequency at the wrong time of day. There are areas where the signal may not be able to be received. You can get the mapping for this from the service that the watch has been set to use.

In North America the auto time receive is supposed to take place between midnight 00:00 to 04:00. In the eastern part of North America the reception is poor compared to central and western part of North America. Check the instruction manual for your watch for details.

I have an AW 150 watch. I looked everywhere for a solution to setting it. I found nothing. It appears that all types of this watch are hard to set. I happened upon the correct procedure for at least setting the watch.

My watch has 4 set buttons that you can push. 2 on each side. Hold the upper right hand button until something starts flashing on the watch. On mine it was the seconds. Then release the button. Now each time you push that button for a very short moment, the flashing part of the watch will progress through each area (minutes, hours, date, etc). When you get to the area you want to set/adjust, use the bottom right hand button to move up/forwards and the bottom left hand button to move down/backwards. When you have fixed one function push the upper right hand button to move to the next function you want to change and repeat the procedure. When you are done, hold the upper right hand button in until the watch quits flashing anywhere and then release the button. Your watch is no longer in the adjust mode. Hope this works for you. It drove me nuts until I figured it out.

the instruction aren't much help either. this was a watch they discontinued pretty shortly after they released it. poor instructions and poor usability. great watch company though. this one was just a dog.
this was taken from a page off amazon: "Try to use the following for setting. 

Press/hold with the upper left button until LIGHT OFF on the display. 

Use lower left to select hour, min, date........ 

Use upper/lower buttons for adjust hour, min, date...... 

Press upper left to exit setting." 

it worked for me. i have several of their watches, but like i said, this one was one of their "dogs"

Found this being sold on e bay

Copy and paste this link into your browser. It will take you to a page where you can download the necessary manual for your watch model.

hi i had the same problem but i have just found the answer. hold the light button until it flash's 12 or 24, then press mode which will change you on to the time, date, ect then fiddle around with the start and reset button to toggle with the time and date. when your done with the time press light again.

Alot of times on watches you can click on the stem one time and you can change the hour. Click on the stem and you can change the minute, date, and month.
