Timex wr30m-setting the day

[@metaling88]

I would have never figured this on my own. Thanks

[@cuzimadapapushkian799]

Just to add to this video, there is no separate day function. The day dial only moves by advancing the time 24 hours at a time. I guess you can go backwards of forwards to move it, so the most you need to advance (or reverse) is 3 days.

[@garybray3614]

Thank you for this. Timex directions say "SIMPLY" pull out stem. What a sack of sh*t. I had to use razor blade and magnifying glass. I had to move out stem like .001 at a time until the stem stayed on its own. Could barely see a space between stem head and case with magnifying glass. Spun stem head until date was set. A miracle. Then pulled out stem all the way and spun and spun until day was correct. Made sure I was on the correct side of noon for the auto changes watch does in normal operation. Like others, directions did not work. You cannot find the date middle stop on stem, because there is none. The date stop is barely out from the case. They should say 1/10 stop or less instead of middle.

Yep, it's a pain in the butt compared to most current day/date analog watches. Maybe if the crowns were bigger it wouldn't be such an annoying task. Truth is Timex needs to go with the conventional "first click out: ⬇for day, ⬆for date."

Thanks to Paul and to cuzimadepapushkian799. Given the small size of the crown, setting the day is painful on the thumb and forefinger. Still, at least now I know how to set the watch!

[@yvetteneal6431]

I am doing it now 😢

Con este video me salió a la primera , gracias

[@paulmattle6683]

De nada!

[@ChiefsFan62]

Thank you! I was trying to set my dad's watch and knew it was something to do with the stem, but I couldn't quite remember how it worked. You saved me some frustration!

[@megsheffer2397]

Thank you!😎👍🏼

[@lissettetrahan2115]

I just received a timex wrist watch # T2H351, I got the time with no problem but couldn't get the date until I saw your video. Now I am wondering whether it will automatically change to right date after the months change? Also I am not sure if I have it on AM. or P.M. Thank you, your instructions really helped.

[@paulmattle6683]

To move the day, you have to keep spinning and advancing 24 hours for each day. It sucks to do. But if you wait until the day that is on the watch to set the date, you'll be all set.

[@titotitus5718]

Thanks! Big help. :)

[@QSasquatch]

You weren't quite done yet how do you change the day of the week

[@rerereuj]

indiglo and wr30m are actually nothing to do with the model. indiglo is a feature thats basically just a purple backlight so you can read it in the dark (you turn this on by pressing the crown) and wr30m stands for water resistant to 30 meters.

[@elainegroves2248]

Thank you for helping me set the date. Couldn’t have done it without your help.

[@dixiemccormick]

What about the day of the week??

[@cuzimadapapushkian799]

There is no separate day function. The day dial only moves by advancing the time 24 hours at a time. I guess you can go backwards of forwards to move it, so the most you need to advance (or reverse) is 3 days.

[@garybray3614]

@@cuzimadapapushkian799 If you go backwards, the day goes back with it. Still have to go the 24 hours thing.

[@jerrytaylor8713]

got time # to move but can't get the Day to move.

[@valeriejwade_94]

No, I still can't get my calendar day to change, it's stuck on Saturday

[@Mario-qq4in]

Thank you 👍

[@mr.redneck2715]

You have to do it in the morning or it won’t work properly.

[@MartinSage]

Dump it and get a good watch. You want to set this turkey half the year from 31 to 30 and vice versa?

[@pintobeans2973]

You never set the DAY!

I was able to set the date, but not the day. I saw the title of your video saying that you figured out how to set the day, but it doesn't look like you were able to do it either.

[@paulmattle6683]

I was able to set the day, if you follow the instructions I posted

[@chriswahlgren5713]

I can not get day to move either
