My Oceanus watch model no. 4749 stays 1/2 hr slow. I manually reset it to the correct time and it resets itself to 1/2 hr slow. I have it set at central time

Quoting: "David posted an answer 3 years ago

Press the MODE button (B) three times to enter the time setting mode. Press the RESET button (A) to tab through seconds, minutes, hour. The ST/STP button (C) scrolls through the number choices. When selecting the hour, if you want 12hr time format make sure the AM or PM is displayed next to the number you deszire. There are 48 possible selections for the hour - 12 for AM, 12 for PM, and 24 for military time. Keep cycling through until the correct hour comes around. Once you have the correct choice, press the MODE button once more to exit time setting mode."

I am not American, so I am not familiar with the definition of "EST" or which of the four "city" settings is correct for you.

Having read the instructions I see that for America you have to select "USA" first and then the appropriate city, have you done this?. The list of four options covers 4 time zones, so you should be able to get the correct time for your area.

When I bought an atomic watch recently, I had to leave it overnight to catch the timekeeping signals. I see that you posted your question only 14 hours ago. How long have you had it. GIve your watch a day or so for it to latch on to the correct time.

Check that the "autoreceive" is "on".

Check that the daylight saving time (DST) is correctly set. The manuals indicate that some areas may not be using it?

Keep trying - it is nice to have a watch that is always correct!

1. Look in the back of your watch, it will show the model number (in a square on top of "CASIO")
2. Look at this web page for the right manual:http://www.oceanus-us.com/index.php?fuseaction=support.content&CNT_ID=14884814-F2AB-46E6-93DC-5E678BD11926
3. Look at the section "Adjusting the Home Positions" - that is where the answer is.

Press and hold the SET button (it will read CHIME with a flashing on or off). Then push the MODE button - the top will be flashing 12-HR or 24-HR. Push the ST/SP button to toggle between the 12-HR to 24-HR reading. Push the MODE button to get to the hour/minute/second/year/mo-day/month/day value you want to change. Push the ST/SP button to increase the value, the RESET button to reduce the value.

press mode button 3 times untill you get into the time set mode - press lap/reset twice until the hours start to blink.

press start/stop and cycle thru all the modes depending what time you want to set - it will go thru 1, 2, 3, etc thru 24 H then 1, 2, 3, etc thru 12 A then 1, 2, 3, etc thru 12 P - depending on thte time you want to set the A is for AM and the P is for PM

hope this helps

Instructions for Sharp Alarm Chrono (Digital)

Push "Mode" button until the mode is shown that you want to reset, do this even if the mode you want to reset is all ready showing.

Push "Reset", continue pushes until the desired Parameter (Minute, Hour, or Second) is flashing.

Use "Start" button to advance the digits to the desired setting.

Push "Mode" Button to finish.

I also have an OCW-M700 and found the instructions that you download from the casio website good and perhaps easier to follow than the booklet, still does need some patience and but worth it in the end because it is a great watch. The manual time/date setting can be done fairly easily once you are in 'Timekeeping mode' (page 4, bottom right). The applicable download is operation guide 4749. Good luck. Also, you probably dont want to know this but for others out there - they sell for around 600US$ in taiwan if you can find a shop that stocks the casio upper range, taipei airport normally has stock at duty free.
