Timex Sports Ironman Triathlon 100-Lap 66801 Wristwatch Logo
Anonymous Posted on Feb 09, 2010

Even after changing the battery, the display fades on a Timex.

Even after changing the CR 2016 battery, the display fades almost immediately on my Timex Ironman Triathlon. I reset the new battery and the display worked for about ten minutes, faded, then disappeared entirely. It happened twice and those batteries are expensive!

It sounds like a short circuit somewhere in the watch. A visit to the authorised dealer sound necessary.

To find your nearest dealer go to "casio.com" click on "support" , then from the menu on the left, click on "repair and service" to find your dealer or service center.

Testimonial: "Thanks for the feedback. It's out of warranty and I'm not sure it's worth it. "

I have a Timex Ironman 30-Lap Mid watch with a dead battery. I purchased a CR 2016 battery as stated on the back cover of the watch. How do I change the battery?

This one is quite simple. Just remove the watch back with a watch case knife and flick out the old cell then carefully press in the new one (VERY carefully as the movement is made of plastic). fit the back exactly the way it came off (note the direction of the writing).

I have a Timex I bought in 2007 on the back of the watch it says CR 2016 cell and WR 100m. The time started to catch on a certain time and stopped the date from working properly, I need to know how to...

Hi,

You should probably replace the battery using a new CR2016 battery. Let the watch set a while without the battery to help it reset. WR 100m just means the watch is "Water Resistant to 100 Meters". Then use the following info.

Timex has two ways to find information about your particular watch. Some of these models only have a guide consisting of a few pages. If you don't have the manual, Try this link:

Complete Timex link site:
http://www.timex.com/info/Product_Instruction_Guides_Downloads

Now, look up the model number, or if you cannot find that, check the three-digit Module Number from the back of the watch. Click on it in the Module Table, and download a PDF of your watch setting-instructions/manual.


If you need further help, call Timex in Little Rock, Arkansas, phone 1-800-448-4639.

I hope this helps you. Thanks, Bill

My Timex men's watch ran fine for a couple of months and then started loosing several hours over a 48 hour period. I changed the battery but after a while it began to do the same thing. The id on it is:...

If it is only two months old and you have proof of purchase (did you register the warranty?), the take it back.

Most watches have at least one years warranty.
