The description clearly says it keeps 24 hour time only. You can't change it.

I think you can. I accidently pushed the letters during programming and they come up on my 10:00 alarm. I never bothered to erase them. The company also has a website where it tells you how to program the watch. It is step by step instructions. This watch is the best I have found. I wish you luck.

I read the Customer Comments first before purchasing and I gambled on it. After getting the watch I also read very carefully of the instruction and I tried not to set ALL immediately and I only set the Time Zone first. Since it is radio controlled so I let the radio to set the time for me. I think it was about an hour or two later the watch set the hands automatically. On the day to Fall Back I did not turn the hands either, instead, I waited until almost 3 a.m. Sunday the radio automatically set the proper time and I did not have to do anything. I really don't remember everything I did, but the "rule" I followed was not to touch on ALL these buttons. Most of us are rather impatient and we want to know it all immediately. When I realized that the Alarm was set at 3 a.m. by the factory I did not rush to change it until I had time to read the instruction and I did just that little. I'm just guessing: If you, Anita, live on the West Coast, why not set your Time Zone to, say, East Coast Time Zone for one day and watch the hands readjust to the East Coast TZ, then a day later change to the Pacific Time Zone and let the radio to adjust the time but don't expect to see the change promptly. Good luck, we have to help each other in this Internet Era Economy. baoedong@yahoo.com

the time can be set up for military time. You can choose that when you initially set up the watch.

Mine is easy to set to20 min. Press the arrow up button above the time. Mine is set for 5 min all the time.

This watch uses a twelve hour clock instead of the 24 hour clock, so it doesn't differentiate between am or pm.

First, point the arrow on the CENTER dial to the current time of day, then, starting W/ all the buttons on the outer ring in the "up" position, push DOWN on the buttons that correspond W/ the time(s) you want your device to operate. While this is possibly a bit more complicated than, say, in intermatic timer-W/ on/off clips, it saves the expense of buying the clips- @ ridiculous prices.

To change time, hold down the clock button on the left side of the unit until the time flashes. Then enter all "0's" to clear the tiem - mine didn;t cooperate when I used the "clear" function - and enter the correct time. Press the "clock" button, but don't hold it, once you have the time set. My clock loses time now, so don't rely on it to stay accurate over the life of the unit. Check OXO's web site for a manual or email them to send you one. They have been very responsive in the past. Have a great day!

just don't push either the 2 or 4 o'clock buttons on the side of the watch. If you don't push them, the watch will not tell you the time or day and date.

Hello. You will have to press the clock button. The time will display for a few seconds then revert back to the original display.

had the same issue ..there is little red button you must put a pin into to rest before it will allow you to set times up. I might also add in the instructions it mentions events, consider both those for off and on when setting the times.

Dr. T, the watch cannot be turned off! The only way to "turn it off" is by disconnecting the battery. If the display is blank as you say, it is defective, and you must return it. It sounds like the battery is dead and no longer able to hold the charge.

Sorry, I haven't needed to change the time on it. It's been on the correct time since first power up. But I believe the clock is in the settings menu.
