In my experience the letters rise counter-clockwise from the 4 o'clock position. so, A would be at 4. B at 2. C at 10 and d at 7. Usually the A is a mode selector and B, C and D control the hands and day/date (if you have them) try press B to control day/date and C for changing time forward and D for changing time backwards - whichever is the shortest way. If you have a 12/24 mode, make sure you are in the right zone is matched with the time and am/pm setting.
Since you don\'t know how to turn it off, the alarm will give you simple instructions. Just stop pressing the buttons. Is there a symbol or an alarm or clock on any of the buttons?
You should be in time keeping mode to do this. The manual say's press the "A" button for 5 seconds not 3 seconds. "A" button should be pressed until you hear 2 beeps (5 sec), if you only hear 1 beep (3 sec) don't let go of the "A" button, if you do you certainly will not be able to change the time, zone, dst, date, etc...
press and hold the lower right button, the digits blinks(blinking means changeable) use the "mode"/the lower left button to choose what digits are you going to change. the upper right button is use for adjusting. if your done just press the lower right button. i hope i had been helped you
look for a mode button then you can scroll to the setting you which to change. once you are there look for an adjust (or similar) button. you hold that down until something flashes or it allows you to change the desired setting. also refer to your user manual if the watch came with one
Take a look at your watch. While
models and brands vary, you'll find a few things in common on almost
all of them. First, they'll have different modes of operation. A typical
digital watch may have modes for time, stopwatch, date, alarm and
timer, to name a few. Look on your watch for a button labeled "mode."
Press it several times to see what's available. Typically the watch will
display the name of each mode as you push the button repeatedly. When
you've found the mode you want to adjust, stop there.

Look for a button that is
labeled "set" or "adjust" on your watch. The location will vary,
depending on the brand of watch you own. Press in and hold this button.
After a few seconds, the time (or whatever mode) you have selected will
begin to flash. In most cases, you'll need to select the item you want
to adjust (minutes or hours) by pressing "mode" again. Once the portion
you want is flashing, you're ready to adjust it.
3
Press a button to advance the
parameter (hours or minutes) that you've selected. This button may or
may not be labeled. If it isn't labeled, you'll have to experiment with
different buttons. Once you've set the first parameter, change to the
second by pressing "mode." Follow the same routine to adjust. To exit,
you'll typically press the "set" button.

Use resources available to you.
There are thousands of digital watch styles on the market, each with
slightly different setting methods. When you buy a watch, tuck the
manual away in a safe location for reference. If you don't have the
manual, do a website search. Most major manufacturers keep their manuals
online for easy future reference.
You should be in time keeping mode to do this. The manual say's press the "A" button for 5 seconds not 3 seconds. "A" button should be pressed until you hear 2 beeps (5 sec), if you only hear 1 beep (3 sec) don't let go of the "A" button, if you do you certainly will not be able to change the time, zone, dst, date, etc...
Your watch should have a "mode" button (often at 8 o'clock) and this enters the settings menu so that you can change them. keep pressing the mode button until you reach the setting you want to change.
You should be able to find a setting that says something like "24". Experiment with the remaining buttons to change the setting. The display should change to "12".
Press the mode button to find the setting for the alarm (Often abbreviated to "AL" or "ALM"?).Again experiment with the buttons to either remove the alarm or or change it form "ON" to "OFF".
Changing the values of the setting is often done by pressing the 4 O'clock button but if this does not work, try the one at 2 O'clock.
For some reason you cannot find the manuals on the Bulova web site any longer. But don't worry....
I have the manual for the Bulova Marine Star 96C30 Watch. This is easily fixable.
Below, I have typed the instruction on how to fix this issue as well as reset the time and calendar and a few extra tips in case you forgot....
Here is what it says to do if the hands don't match up with the display time (usually happens after you change the battery).
First, you must locate the buttons on the watch.
The "A" button is at the 2 o'clock position (upper right).
The "B" button is at the 10 o'clock position (upper left)
The "C" button is at the 8 o'clock position (lower left)
The "M" (mode) button is at the 4 o'clock position (lower right), and is the only button you can pull out to set the times, calendar and programming.
To RESET the watch and do the ZERO POSITIONING after changing a battery or having a display error, do the following.
RESET
1. Pull the "M" button out to the setting position.
2. hold down the "A", "B", and "C" buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds, then release them. All digit segments will turn on and display completely.
ZERO POSITIONING
1. Press the "B" button and all the segments in the digital time will reset to zero, with "UTC" showing in the main digital window.
2. Zero the "UTC" minute and hour hand (located in 12 o'clock sub-dial) to the 24 o'clock maker (straight up). Button "A" will move the hands clockwise, and button "C" will move the hands counter clockwise.
3. Press button "B" - "HR" shows in the main digital window. Adjust the main (large) hour hand to the 12 o'clock (midnight) position using "A" and "C" buttons. At the same time, observe the synchronized 24 hour hand (small dial to the left of the main dial), to insure that it also moves to point to "24".
4. Press button "B". "MIN" shows in the display window. Adjust the large minute hand to also point to the 12 using the "A" and "C" buttons.
5. Push the "M" (mode) button back in to its normal position. The watch beeps and at the same time the hands jump slightly. ALL RESET and ZERO POSITIONING are now complete.
6. Reset the time, calendar and other modes.
To set the time.
Note that changing the time in any of the cities will automatically update the time for all the cities.
1. Press the "M" button to move the mode hand to (TME)
2. Press either the "A" or "C" button to move to the desired city.
3. Pull the "M" button out to the setting position.
4. Press the "A" button. SECONDS will blink. Set them with "C".
5. Press the "A" button again, and MINUTES will blink. Set them with the "C" button.
6. Press the "A" button again, and HOURS will blink. Set with the "C" button.
7. Press the "A" button again, and 12 or 24 hours tim format will appear.
8. Push in the "M" button to its normal position.
To set thecalender
1. push the "M" button to move the mode hand to (CAL)
2. Set the city using the "A" or "C" buttons.
3. Pull out the "M" button to the "setting" position. The numbers of the "month" starts to blink. this is an "american" date system with the month first, day second, and year third. Use "C" button to adjust the month.
4. Push the "A" button. The date (day) will flash. Adjust with the "C" button.
5. Push the "A" button. The YEAR flashes. Adjust with the "C" button.
6. Push the "M" button back in. The calender is simultaneously adjusted for all cities.
Couple of other "tips".
Switching the time on the digital display with the time shown on the hands:
1. Press the "M" button until the mode hand is in (TME) or (CAL) mode.
2. Pressing the "A" and "C" button together.
The time will switch the between the main hands (analog) and the digital display.
Temporary Hand Retraction
Pressing and holding the "B" button will move the hands out of the way of the display. Repressing the "B" button will put the hands back at the correct time.
hope this helps.
