Usually. About one time in 20 it does not and I find it still on when I wake up in the morning even though I know noone has been anywhere in the vicinity for hours. It also lacks a bit in sensitivity. Not much competition however.

Cant answer positively but seems to me that if it doesn't perhaps you could just set it to whatever time zone matches your current time?

As a matter of fact, two hours is what mine are set for. So the answer is yes.

I bought it for my mother. I'm pretty sure that it does not automatically announce the time every hour. When she wants to know the time, she pushes a little button on the side. When she is waiting for something she pushes it every 5 mins. But, she loves the watch!

yes. Following the item picture, 11:25:43, indicates 11 hrs, 25 mins, 43 secs.

No, its set for a certain amt of minutes and turns off after time runs out.

Yes . You have to turn the alarm off or it resets after 2 hrs of it being triggered.

Not exactly. It's set up to go off at set intervals to remind you to do something every 30 minutes, or hour, or however long you set it for.

Yes it does. As well as a choice of 2 thru 6 hours of staying on. I Love this

Yes, with more than one time zone and various format selections (12 hour, 24 hour, date formats)

Yes or more times. We have ours set to turn on in the morning mon thru fri and in the afternoon/evening all week. It took me a little time to figure out how to do it, but once I played with it for a week or so, it all makes sense. Good luck!

Yes. It will play all night. Also in my review I said the numbers on the overhead display were backwards. You can rotate the display 180 degrees so it shows the time correctly.

Yes I believe so. My husband is the one that does the settings but I am pretty sure he has used half hours before.

Im thinking only if you set it to go on at a certain time and off again.. exp.. on at 8:30 and then off at 9:00 .. It wouldn't come back on until 8:30

The only time my moms does it is when she pushes the button. Wasn't aware that there was an hourly announcement so in answer to your question I'm going to have to go with "yes". =)

No. It has a warm setting that will activate after the timer reaches zero but no delayed start times.
