It can take some time the first time it is switched on.

If it doesn't work after a couple of hours, take it back to the supplier.

How do i set time on radio controlled wrist watch 3 atm

The point of a radio-controlled watch is that you should not have to move the hands manually. It is meant to respond to a time signal send from various places in the USA, UK, Germany, Japan and (I think) China.
The signal's strength varies considerably, depending on where you are located and the ambient temperature. It may need some application and persistence to get the watch synchronized with the signal, this will cause the hands to move to the correct local time - even then it may need correction if you are in a different UTC time zone or on Daylight Saving Time (DST) locally. Not knowing the make complicates the validity of any information.

I have found that the sync signal is broadcast on the hour for about five minutes and is best received at night where the signal travels further.
Ensure your watch is fully charged and leave your watch by a window overnight for best results.
If you still have difficulty, use an internet search to find the nearest broadcast station to where you are and work out which direction-facing window is best sited to face it.

I have two RC watches - one Citizen and one Casio. One likes to have the left side of the watch facing the window and the other favours the 12 o'clock facing the window, As I don't know the make of your watch I would recommend trying to place it in various orientations until you find one that works for you. I have found the whole set up performs best in cold air situations - and so are more reliable in the winter.

Guessing further, If you bring up the signal display function it may force the watch into signal sync mode - always remembering the 'on the hour' signal broadcasts. You may also find a way of adjusting the hour to suit if it differs for you once it is synced.

Brand new watch - has both digital & analog - analog doesnt work - can it be battery

Whatever the problem, don't try to fix it!

Send it back and ask for a replacement!

(unauthoristed attempts at repairs usually invalidates the warranty.

How can I restart or change the hour from my Timex Ironman GPS if I choosed the correct city (Mexico City). I have the full GPS signal and I recived another time (-1 hour)?

http://www.timex.com/info/Product_Instruction_Guides_Downloads


There are two ways to find the user manual for your Timex watch.


1. Find your watch on the list below and click on the language link for your manual.


2. Find the 3-digit module number located on the caseback of most Timex products and click on the corresponding language link for that number in the Module Table at the bottom of the page.

Casio wave ceptor 3747

Use this link to read Direct Casio manual:

http://ftp.casio.co.jp/pub/world_manual/wat/en/qw3747.pdf

I suggest you may need to wait till the first signal is received by watch.
If all this doesn't work, then check the battery condition- it may be underpowered and need replacement. Eve if your watch is brand new, the battery may be few years old.

Do not forget to rate, please.
