Can't change time

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.

Hi Mateo,

I suppose you don't know how to open the backside of your watch, to replace the battery.
If that is so, check the back side of your watch. At the edge of the centre cover, or just under it, there is at 1 place a little notch of a view millimeters. Juse a small screw driver or tweezers for instance to lift it up. If you don't succeed, the cover might be tight and sticky. So you need to put the back side of your watch on a hot and wet cloth. That might help to loosen the sticky edges.
Good luck ;)

Pl don't try yourself better visit a well experienced watch maker to replace it otherwise you will finish with worse

You can get instructions by going to http://www.sportline.com/category.php?cat=4
and locate your watch from the list and clicking on your model.

Now click on "more info" and you will find a tab marked "manual"

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

Know your buttons "A" "B" "C" "D"


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...

The watch has a "battery" and claims that it does not need to be replaced but perhaps it needs re-charging. If you go to their web site (click on the link below), there is a full explanation of re-charging requirements :-

I presume that you are winding the watch 24 hours to change the date.

You can shorten the time it takes to change the dates in the following manner:-

Wind the watch until the date changes, then turn it back until it passes 12 again and then turn it forward. Each time it passes 12 the date should increase by a day.

You may have to experiment to find how far past 12 in both directions to get the date to change.

mcdevito75 here, The manufacturer recommends you don"t try to change the date between certain hours as this could hurt the date changeing mechanism inside the watch, I don"t think you did any harm (LUCKY) and the date changeing 45 minutes before mid nite is just about right. BUT! if the date change was aliitle closer to mid nite at 1 time you can try to reset the date, here"s how, your stem should have 2 positions to change the date without haveing to cycle the watch the 24 hours 60 times. Slip a finger nail just under the crown and gently, gently lift the crown to it:s first position, it may take a little practise but you"ll get it, once you do, trun the crown and you should see the DATE change, if so set the DATE to 1 DATE before the DATE you want, now pull the stem out and set the correct gate and time of day. Your watch is now reset and date will change on time, around nid nite.

It's part of the design. this let's you know it's time to change the battery.
