Does the watch come with instructions for set-up and battery maintenance? Are the hands and voice time synchronized?

The watch instructions tell how to set the time for the voice function. There are two recessed buttons; one at the 4:00 o'clock position and one at the 8:00 o'clock position for setting the minutes and hours respectively. The hands are set manually with a knob; the hands and voice are not synchronized.No battery replacement instructions.Additional info: my wrist is about 7 to 8 inches in circumference and the wrist band fits correctly without modification.

There are only instructions for setting the time and date. The voice and hands are not syncronized. Still, my Godfather loves being able to hear the time.

the instructions that come with the watch are very clear and easy to follow. I had to set the time for a country overseas and was easy to do that. The hands will be set at the time of your choice, the voice, basically reads what the hands show. Unfortunately I can not recall instructions about battery maintenance. Hope this was helpful. Great product haven't received any complaints so far.

The watch I bought came with directions. You must set the hands and voice times separately

Yes the watch comes with complete instructions and you set the hands to the correct time and the voice to the correct time individually once set up they are synchronized

I bought the talking watch for another person who is blind and elderly. When I got the watch, I set the time for him and taped a piece of card board to the back of it so he would not inadvertently hit the buttons in the back of the watch and thereby screw-up the time setting. Also, it helps having one or more back-up watches, adjusted the same way, if they are needed. Given the relatively low price of these mechanisms this should not be out of the question for most folks.

You need motospeak and your phone has to be synced via Bluetooth. You can answer incoming calls and return missed calls from your watch. You can speak commands via headset to make calls. You don't have a numeric keypad for call outs on the watch though.

Hi there, you need to pair the belt and the device. Go to settings, by pressing the middle button in for couple of seconds, then choose pair and hold the belt next to the watch. If this does not work, take the battery out of the strap, insert the battery upside down into the strap and and pair it again.

You need to sync it. Check Garmin's website for the manual to your specific watch and the instructions to sync these two products.

It has a normal watch function as well. However if you do not to intend to use this as your daily wrist watch (like I do -- I only use it for trainings), you will have to re-set the time again every time your turn it on after a while of being turned off. Not really a big deal but I can do without the frequent setting of time for sure. Usually I'll just ignore setting the time since I'll turn it off immediately after training anyway.

Yes it does. And it works really good! You can also replace the battery when it dies with a watch battery.

Sorry Amy, I am still trying to set up my watch to do anything! Three other people have tried to set up my watch. I believe that the words Quality was misused.

I've used it for practice and testing and never had to replace the battery. It's the same as any other watch...I'm guessing probably once a year for changing batteries and then just take it to a jewelry repair kiosk in the mall and have to them change the battery for $10 just like any other watch.

What are u trying to do. The watch do sent do everything they say it dose. You can basically only talk on it or listen to the radio. To set it up to your phone you have to bluetooth it.

The battery is not easily removed, but with some jewelers screwdrivers you can dismantle the battery compartment and insert a new battery. One tip, please take photographs of every step so you can refer to the photos when re-assembling. It is tricky otherwise. The other issue of course is getting the O ring back in it's slot so the watch has some degree of being waterproof. That will be an important issue. I believe it is very difficult to pressure test a plastic watch. Probably not worth the exercise.

Yes it does. You set it easily with the buttons - It does not seem to keep the time and date for any length of time if it does not have constant power.

Why would you need to do that? The watch only speaks the hour if you touch the button to hear what time it is.

Not at all. I'm not even sure what you mean. I just put it on my wrist and change the mode to run. It will sync up with a satellite ~15 secs and then tell you to "Go." You wear it just like a normal watch.
