Setting Time I cant figure out how to set it with just the two buttons on the right side side

A lot of watch manufacturers use the American style date layout of Month/Day/Year. Try this. Looking at the watch press and hold the bottom right SIDE button for 3 seconds. It should enter setting mode where the seconds display will flash. Press the Right FACE button once. It should switch to the Hour display flashing. Press the same button again to go to minutes and them again to go to the date display.
Repeated pressing of the top Right SIDE button changes the numbers upwards, (1,2,3,4), and the Left FACE button changes the numbers downwards, (4,3,2,1). Press the Bottom right SIDE button once to finish and go back to the normal display.

To set the time on a Dakota one button watch, you will need to follow the instructions in the user manual that came with the watch. If you do not have the user manual, you can try the following steps:

1. Press and hold the button on the top right side of the watch: Press and hold the button until the time display appears.
2. Set the time: Use the button to set the time. The specific sequence for setting the time will depend on the make and model of your watch.
3. Exit the time setting mode: Once the time is set, you will need to exit the time setting mode. The specific steps for exiting the time setting mode will depend on the make and model of your watch.

It is important to note that the steps for setting the time on a Dakota one button watch may vary depending on the specific make and model of the watch. If you are unable to set the time using the steps above, it is recommended to refer to the user manual or contact Dakota customer support for assistance.
If you have a "his and hers" set of Dakota watches, the steps for setting the time on both watches should be the same. You can use the steps above to set the time on both watches.

My watch has model number 504-tsk085, labeled Timex 1440 Sports, and Timex provides the incorrect manual for it online. I wrote these instructions after careful experiment:

Upper left button: press to switch to a stopwatch, or...

Press and hold to enter alarm setting mode. Once flashing press again to enter time/date setting mode.
-- you can only do one or the other without exiting the setting
mode (time or alarm set).
- within the setting mode you use the two right side buttons
in obvious ways to set times/dates
Exit setting mode by pressing upper left again

Lower left button: light
Upper right button (when not setting time): reveal date while pressed

Lower right button (when not setting time): reveal alarm time while pressed.

ALSO: WHILE lower right button is pressed you can change alarm
on/off and chime on/off through the four possible settings by
secondarily pressing the upper right button repeatedly.

Go into settings.

Press the center button on the right hand side of the watch 1 time you will see settings watch time & date appear in the display.

Press the bottom button on the right side of the watch1 time to get into the TRAINING SETTINGS FUNCTION.

When you see TRAINING SETTINGS in the display press the center button on the right side of the watch once.

You are in TRAINING SETTING mode.

Press the bottm button on the right hand side of the watch 3 times until you see
ZONE LIMITS displayed.

When you see ZONE LIMITS displayed press the center button on the right side of the watch 1 time to enter into the ZONE LIMITS FUNCTION.

Now, you should see the lower end heart rate limit number blinking.

To adjust this number use the top button on the right hand side of the watch to increase this limit or lower button on the right hand side to decrese it.

When you have it set where you want it press the center button 1 time to save that setting.

Now you should see the upper limit number blinking.

Follow the same steps to set the upper heart rate limit.

When you have pressed the ceter button to set the upper limit you have completed setting the heart rates limits and the display should read: LIMITS SET!

Setting the Time
1. G-Shock watches feature a digital display that is set using the function buttons on the outside of the watch face. To set the time, press and hold the the upper left button until the seconds unit blinks on the display. Reset the seconds to "00" by pressing the lower right button.
   
   Push the lower left button to switch to the hours unit, which will start blinking. Advance the hour by pressing the lower right button. If you hold down the lower right button, it will advance the hour unit at a higher rate of speed. Once the hour is set, press the lower left button to switch to the minutes unit. As with the hours unit, pressing the lower right button will advance the minutes and holding it down will advance the minutes rapidly.
   
   Once the time is set, press the upper left button to save the setting.
Backlight
2. The backlight on a G-Shock watch has a manual control and an automatic function that will light the face of the watch whenever the alarm, countdown alarm or hourly alarm ring. To use the manual backlight, press the button on the bottom of timepiece. The light will glow for approximately 2 seconds before going out.
   
   The automatic function is set by pressing and holding the lower right button. When the automatic function is set, an indicator icon will display on the watch face above the seconds unit. You can turn off the automatic backlight function by pressing and holding the lower right button until the icon disappears.
   
   Note that backlight causes a drain on the battery, and overuse of the backlight will greatly reduce battery life.

To set the alarm, press the lower left button until "AL" displays in the upper left corner of the timepiece. Press and hold the upper left button until the hours unit starts to blink. Adjust the hour by pressing the lower right button. As when setting the time, you can advance the hour at a higher rate of speed by holding down the lower right button.
