Hands Stopped The hands on my REACTION DIGITAL DUAL TIME RK5080 watch have quit working. Only the digital time works. I had a watch shop replace the battery but it did not restore function to the hands. They suggested I send the watch to Kenneth Cole for repair, but I could not find the appropriate place to send it. I no longer have the box. PS..How do I set the digital time? I don't have the instructions anymore.

try to reset the clock and if it still doesn't work I think its broken.

If the digital time is still showing, it looks like your watch has a defect. If the digital display doesn't display anything, the most probable cause is an empty battery. In both cases you should take it to the shop to have it repaired/the battery replaced.

You have to know that analog time "follows" digital time.Any hour/minutes correction on the display has direct effect on time/minutes hands.Some times, mostly after battery replacement,hands might have declination.That is why there is a function so called "Hands home position adjustment".Using this function you can align both hands to 12/00 position.If there is any declination (I think is your case) you can correct.Try to enable this function by pressing for 4-5 sec the upper left button(A) until "HAND SET" appears.If hands are not aligned exactly to 12/00 position, you must correct by pressing the lower right button (D) for forward movement or the upper right button (B) for backward movement.In fact, minutes hand is aligned,hour hand follows.When both hands are set to 12/00 (home position) press button A again.Time Mode returns to the display.Normally hands will now show exactly according to digital (display) time.I hope this will help.

Some watches can display dual times (two values) usually off by an integer number of hours + 30 minutes, Read the manual to set the digital display time then correct the analog display. Or just use one of the two.

Just tried this procedure to replace a watch battery in a POD 535 and did not work...my version of the watch might be different, all I am saying is it did not work with my watch.
The procedure that worked with my watch
When you have replaced the battery reset the watch by placing a small screw driver across the two recessed contact next to the lower battery clip. The digital display will reset and you will see four zero's flashing...if not press the winder button once, or reset the watch again. This process is to get all the hands at twelve O clock position...press and hold the top right hand button and the hands will start revolving...you can let go of the button once the hand are moving. Pressing the top button again will stop the hands and a short press will move the hands in small increments. Once the hands get close to 12 press then press the button once and then press the same button in short pulses to align all the hands on the 12 position. Wait a short time and the watch will find the time signal and both the digital display and hands will be aligned and showing the correct time.

Hi,
digital and analogue watches have 2 different batteries,I believe you need to replace the battery of the analog part ..just reminder,so save money and time you can replace both at the same time to prevent to replace the digital one 2 months later.!
