Question about Ebel Tarawa Automatic 9127J40/5435136 Wrist Watch

2 Answers

Watch stops My watch stops for no apparent reason and won't start again until I pull the knob to change the date and/or time. It works for a few hours or days and then stops again. I understand it is an automatic/no winding watch. Thanks!!

I have a Theorema Paragon Automatic which I don't wear all the time so it stops couldn't get it to restart and couldn't find a solution either so tinkered around with it until I hit (no pun intended) a a self help solutions. Only winding the watch will not start the it. Solution: 1.Set the watch to the right time. 2. Wind it for about 40 full revolutions in clockwise rotation.3.Hold the watch in your right hand by the strap and hit it firmly into the palm of your left hand. Giving the watch a shock This kick starts the spring mechanism into life and solves the problem.

Sounds like the oil is contaminated and causing undo friction or the main spring is ether broken or slipping. Time to service your watch. call me 707-338-3207 www.finewatchmaking.com

How do I change time and date on timex indiglo

  • How to Set Dial Indiglo Watches


    • 1Pinch the winding knob on the right side of the watch between your thumb and forefinger.


    • 2 Pull the knob out from the watch slowly until it clicks into the first position.


    • 3Turn the knob to move the hour and minute hand to set the time. Move the knob clockwise to move the settings forward and counterclockwise to move them backwards.


    • 4 Pull the knob out further until it clicks into the second position. In the second position (the one furthest from the face), turn the knob to set the calendar, if your Indiglo has one. Turn the knob clockwise to move the settings forward and counterclockwise to move them backward. Push the knob back in to the watch face when you are done.
    How to Set Digital Indigo Watches


    • 1 Press the button on the lower right side of your Indiglo watch to unlock the mode function of the watch.



    • 2 Press the button on the lower left side to move through the modes. Each time you are in a mode, the digital display will flash. For example, when the time display begins to flash, you are in the correct mode to set the time.



    • 3 Change the time (or date) by pressing the button on the upper right side to advance the numbers or the button on the left side to move the numbers down. When you do this, you will be changing the first set of numbers (the hour or month, for instance); to change the minutes, press the button on the right side of the face until the second set of numbers is flashing and begin the process again.



    • 4 Press the button on the lower left side of the watch to save your settings. The button on the upper left side of the watch is not used in this process--it is the switch to turn on your Indiglo light.

    How do you set the day of the week?
    Since you didnt tell me what KIND of watch it is I am giving you a general instructions.

  • Wait until the second hand is at zero (the top of the dial). Then pull the crown knob out as far as it will go to set the time on your watch. Turn the knob in either direction and look at the three additional hands on the time dials of your watch: the minute hand, the hour hand and the 24-hour hand.
  • Step 2 Stop turning the knob when all minute and hour hands are pointing to the correct time. Pay special attention to the 24-hour hand so that you have a.m. or p.m. correct.
  • Step 3 Push the knob back in exactly when a new minute is starting so that your second hand will be correct. Use another clock you know to be accurate as a reference, such as the government clock available online.
  • Step 4 Pull the knob out halfway so you can set the date. Turn it counterclockwise until you notice the date on the watch changing. Stop it and push the knob back in to its starting position once you reach the correct one. Try to set the date before 9 p.m. If you set it after that time, it may not register with your watch that it should switch the date at midnight. If this happens with your watch, just fix it the next day.
  • Step 5 Set the chronograph, or big dial, on your watch. It works like a stopwatch to let you time activities for up to one hour. Push the top button on the side of your watch to start it. Push it again to stop it. Push the bottom button on the side of your watch to reset it.

    • It would certainly help if next time you let us know what kind of watch it is you have, Best of luck.

    I have an older expedition indiglo timex. Is thereb a shortcut for setting date? Watch has only one stem with only one setting for time
    Your watch sounds like a mechanical type (old).

    Older watches rely on the hour hand passing 12 to re-set the date.

    Wind your watch until the date changes and then turn the hands backwards passed 12 and then forwards again to advance the date again. How far you need to wind it passed 12 (in both directions) is something that you will have to find out by experiment.


    Have patience!

    Setting a cartier chronograph watch
    1. click the top button to stop the second hand
    2. click the bottom button to reset the timer
    3. pull the crown out all the way
    4. twist the crown forward hard and fast for a few seconds. The minute hand will start advancing very quickly.
    5. when the desired date and time is reached, push the crown back in place. If you missed the time, pull the crown back out and twist backwards. The minute hand will move slowly in reverse. If you twist hard and fast, the minute hand will start spinning in reverse again.

    I don't know if you still have the problem, but what you should do is te following:

    * pull out the knob (2 times) and turn anti-clockwise to change the time
    * keep doing until it's 24.00 (midnight) and you day change's to the UK (!) day.
    * push back the knob (1 time) and change the day to the FRANCE (!) day by turning anti-clockwise
    * pull out the knob again and turn anti-clockwise to change the time until 03:00 (midnight)
    * you see the then change the day back to the UK day

    So, every night at 00:00 the day changes to the FRANCE notation and at 03:00 it then changes to the UK notation, so you can enjoy this setting during the day.

    Good Luck.

    Date changes wrong time
    thats because analog watches don't know the difference between AM/PM. First reset the time, moving the hour and minute hands another 12 hours will let you know exactly what mode its in (am/pm) first allowing you to set the date correctly.
