Press MODE again to see the hours flash and again use the TUNE/SKIP buttons to set the hour

Press MODE again to see the minutes flash and use the TUNE/SKIP buttons to set the minutes.

All the settings seem to go through the start/stop button. If you hold it down for 3 (not 2, not 4, but 3) seconds, it toggles in and out of "set the watch mode". You can tell you are in it because the seconds at the bottom go all blinky. Use (quick press) start/stop to move from seconds, to minutes, to hours, to year, to month, to day. Mode subtracts, reset adds. To set alarms, etc, first put the watch into Alarm Mode (Mode button, again).
Use the reset button to move to the selected alarm (1-5).
Hold the start/stop button for 3 seconds to toggle into "set the alarm mode".
Quick press of start/stop moves between things to set (kind of alarm, hours, minutes).
Mode subtracts, reset adds.
3 second hold of start/stop takes you out of setting mode.
