Set watch I have a Swerve watch. It's set to display military time. How do I switch it to standard time?

Try this and report back whether it works for you or not:

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 desir. 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.

Wal-Mart sells affordable watches by the company Athletic Works. It's sometimes common to throw away the directions, only to discover later you can't figure out how to set the watch. The problem is that Athletic House doesn't have a website or any manual online, so you may have difficulty getting help unless you find someone who also has the watch.

There should be four buttons: mode, reset, start and light. Find the mode button and press it three times until it is in the set time mode.

Find the reset button, which usually is located on the bottom right side of the watch face, and hold it until the time starts blinking.

Press the start button to change minutes.

Press the reset button again to switch to hours. You will know it worked when the hour starts blinking instead of the minutes.

Press the start button to change the hour. The watch can handle two modes: standard and military. As you press start, the hour will change from AM to PM, noted by an "A" or a "P" in the top right. When you get through 24 hours, the watch will change to military time and an "H" will be displayed instead of "A" or "P." Keep pressing start to go through another 24-hour cycle and it will revert back to standard time.

Press the reset button to switch to the date, starting with the month, and press start to change it.

Press reset one last time to switch from month to the day, and again press the start button to switch days.

Press the mode button to finish the changes.
Tips

Depending on which type of Athletic House watch you have, the buttons might be in different places. But the steps remain the same, regardless of button placement. If you have more questions about your watch, bring it to Wal-Mart and ask to see a manual.

You can get the instruction manual here:
http://www.genevawatchgroup.com/pdf/unlisted/UNLISTED-GENERAL-ANALOG-DIGITAL-INST.pdf

If you have the manual then it should explain how to change from "24" to "12" display.

If you haven't got the manual then some experimenting my find the solution to your problem. One of the buttons should cycle through the settings menu and in there should be an option to set the display.

When in the set time mode press the A button this will toggle between standard and military time. I had the same problem, dscovered it by trial and error, not in instructions.

With time displayed:

Press lower right, then upper left.

hit mode three times until TUES flashes and the seconds. Hit reset until the hours flash and hit start to change them. The watch goes from AM hours to PM and then back through AM and when it cycles through the PMs for the second time, they will alternate 12/24 hour time.

Possibly, you could push the hour-setting button through either the military or standard time setting, i.e., there are actually 48 "hours" you can set your watch to and you need to cycle through enough of them to reach the standard or military hour you want.

If its the watch I think it is try holding in the top right button on the watch. That should change it back to 12 hour time
