How do you reset the time on this watch? thanks!

Hand home positioning normally has nothing to do with time setting.
Just set your local time and date and then you can do the hand home positioning procedure.This will not affect the time setting.If hands,after a while,do not show correctly,this means that the watch is under severe magnetic field, after severe shock or finally watch malfunction.
You must know that on this type of watches analog time follows digital time.

Press and hold the reset button, for 5 seconds, while in Time mode. the heart monitor will reset and the symbol reappear on the screen

Thank you for contacting FixYa.

Set Digital Watch
1. Press and hold the "Mode" button on the right side of your Arnette digital watch for three seconds to change the watch's mode. Press and hold the "Mode" button repeatedly until flashing digits indicate that you have entered the watch's time-setting screen.
2. Use the top and bottom buttons on the left side of your Arnette digital watch to increase and decrease number values as desired.
3. Press and hold the "Mode" button repeatedly to exit the time-setting screen and return the watch to time-telling mode.
Set Analog Watch
4. Pull out the watch crown on the right side of your Arnette analog watch.
5. Turn the watch crown clockwise to adjust the hands of your Arnette analog watch to the appropriate time.
6. Push the watch crown back in when you are finished setting the time on your Arnette analog watch.

Best regards. Jewel

Hi,the problem is either from a weak battery or a mechanical fault in the engine of the watch,
i think you should replace the battery,if the problem persists afterwards,then it's time to give him a wrist watch as a birthday gift.

Be cool.

I went to How To Mend It Site and I fixed the watch in ten minutes and it was free I expected fast response from you because of the charge.

You need to reset your watch completely and to do that, you have to start from battery.
Extract watch battery completely and leave your watch without energy supply for an hour. This will erase any data kept in watch memory.
Then put the battery back in watch exactly the way it was and reset your watch using your manual.
Unfortunately I can't help with manual as the original is the best you can get.

Don't forget to rate, please.
