Timex - an inexpensive watch - is not worth fixing. you didn't say how old it is, but likely it is time for you to give it up and get a new one. (they do wear out, you know.)

Testimonial: "It is just 2 weeks old. So indeed its worth fixing."

    in that case, (now that we know it isn't a 'many years old watch you just like', ..... it is still within the manufacturer's warrantee period - just return it for a working one or a full refund of your money.

    I need a technical answer like the steps to switch back to normal time. Such answers not helping like throw it away or claim warrantee. I bought this from Dubai but now I'm in Sri Lanka. I guess here we don't have place to claim. It was working before. I think I may need to know the correct steps to activate it.

  • pawnpower Mar 08, 2018

    if you just add a little information each time, then, you may be trolling instead of seeking help. first you ask how to get the hand 'working' as it was stuck, now you change your question to how to change time. I'm done.

    Thanks but if I want to claim or throw it away I don't need to post a question here. It is obvious that I do not need such opinions and the provided information is sufficient. So its not trolling for sure. Question didn't change . Yes the hand that indicate the second (time) is stuck / not moving.

    press and hold the upper button while pressing and releasing the lower button. That starts and stops second hand.

SOURCE: I have a seiko flight watch, unknown of the model, second hand doesn't reset

I guess the blue faced SEIKO is a Flightmaster (Model: 7T92- OCFO)and it is a great watch. This is a common problem with most chronographs and this happens due to misalignment with usage.

All you need to do is pull out the locking crown all the way out (2nd Step) as if setting time. and then press and hold the top / left button and at first the milli seconds hand resets. after which you have to press the borrom / right button to move the seconds hand in to place. and then reset the time and lock the crown. You can repeat this for Milli Seconds, Seconds, Minutes & hours hands.
Hope this helps,
Krishna Chaitanya GT.

SOURCE: how to access older timex automatic watch second hand

You should be able to open the back by popping it off with a sharp knife blade. Sometimes, the lip where you'd open it is hard to see and usually under the band, between the lugs. The movement will just come out. If I read you right, you know how to do this, once the movement is removed. You can't just pull the hands off. Hopefully, you'll be able to just VERY EASILY bend the one that is causing the problem.

SOURCE: The hour/minute/second hands on my Timex Ironman not moving

It could have 2 batteries! 1.5 volt for analog and lithium for digital! Take it to a reputable watch repair business and let them check! :-)

Good luck!

SOURCE: The chronograph second hand now resets to the 5 O-Clock position?

I have found instructions that tell you how to reset the hands but there are several buttons on your watch and to avoid confusion you really need to see a diagram.

You can do this by going to the Seiko web site (seiko.com), click on "support", then "instruction booklets".

Scroll down the next page and you will see a list of the watches made by Seiko. Select yours and download.

Go to page 16.

The seconds hand on my invicta subaqua reserve does not move. It only moves when I start the chronograph. I've read the instructions time after time and can not get it to work.

The hand that moves when the chronograph is working is not a second hand. It will rest at the 12 o'clock position unless you are using the stopwatch. If your Invicta has a second hand, it is one of those small dials on the watch face.

Yes that's common, most chronograph watch's a small subdial is the times second hand. The large second hand is only for the timing function of the chronograph.

HI, i have a gucci watch YA077310 and i dont know how to set it. also the second hand does not work.

To set the time, you normally pull out the crown and rotate it. The main (large) second hand is associated with the chronograph function so is stopped at 12 when no using chronograph. There should be a little second hand in a little round area on dial that is moving.

The second hand is not moving

Got the same problem guys. i have one of the new electronic diving eco drives.
First time i managed to get it going again, by forcing all the hands to the top for diving mode, then back to normal, this action ´nudged´the minute hand back into motion, but a little later it stuck again at the same spot.
I guess mines going back to the factory, and i´m gonna b watchless for a few weeks :(

Reset Stopwatch Hands on CL1111 ?

Try setting the crown to position 2 - i.e. the position normally used to adjust the date.  Then use the top and bottom stopwatch buttons to adjust the minute hand and 1/10th hand respectively.
