Re: I recently bought a nixon newton watch and my crown...
If you still can see the stem near the hole of the watch, you only have to replace its crown. but if not you have to replace both. i hope i had been helped you.

Resetting Chronograph Hands:
Note: Some Nixon watches come equipped with a "screw-down" crown; the crown must be unscrewed by turning it counterclockwise before it can be pulled out)
1. Pull the crown all the way out to position 2.
2. Push the crown in slightly to position 1.
3. Push top pusher button to advance the second hand to line up with the 12:00 position
4. Push the crown back in. (Make sure it is screwed in if it is a screw crown)
The date changes every second time the hour hand passes 12 O'clock.
Your watches' second pass is at midday instead of midnight, so to make it operate correctly, you need to wind it on 12 hours. The date will then change at midnight.
Hi
You don't fix it. Hopefully you mean it's only 3 days old from being new and you can take back to the shop for refund/replacement.
ROM - stands for Read Only Memory and is basically the chip that all the software and information is stored on. This runs the watch and it's this that has failed. You could try reseting the watch by removing the battery and then replacing it.
Pull out crown to the time setting position (second click) and set time to 5.30 pm or am. Push crown back completely. Pull out crown to the date setting position (first click) and set it to 26th, then pull out crown further out to the time setting position (second click) and adjust watch hands forwards until the date changes to 27th. Date is changing at midnight, so, continue to adjust hands forward to the right time. Rate me, plz.
Click on my profile (escapement), then click on Tips and Tricks. There you will find link to all Nixon watch manuals. To stop the crown to come off it must be screwed and secured onto stem. If you are not sure how to do that, visit your nearest watch repair shop and they will do it for you. Rate me, please.
