Indiana (IU) Fossil Kaleidoscope watch

You are supposed to be able to push a button and change the face of the watch from gray to red with IU emblem on it. The watch runs fine but the IU face will not appear. Thought maybe the watch had 2 batteries and 1 needed replace, but only has 1 battery. What could be the problem.

Was anyone ever able to help you with this, or did you figure it out? I have an Illinois watch I'm having the same trouble with.

Need owners manual for fossil Big Tic Blue JR 8624

Inside the case back on my JR-7855 is a label with the steps to take to change the batteries. The sticker says to short the pad marked "S1" with the pad marked "+". Keep doing it quickly, then check the watch face

. You got it right when the seconds start to change on the face.

Here is a view at the inside of the watch. The two points you are looking for are highlighted in red.

I have a sport watch fossil CH2470. the second hand is not moving, stuck on 12, but everything else works. how do i fix this?

Your watch is Chronograph watch and the big centre seconds hand is for chronograph function only - not day to day seconds counting. Check the small dials and you will see that the small seconds hand is already counting seconds- this small one is seconds counter. To engage chrono hand push the upper push button once. To stop it - push the same button again. to return to zero- push lower button.

How do I get the colour to change on the watchface?

mcdevito75 here, You have a Fissil watch, Quatrtz, and the face has changed color, If the color is a dark gray or black, and you"ve banged the watch against something, The LCD Liquid Crystal Display is shot, no good anymore. To be sure see a local small watch repair shop in your area, they should tell you for sure and for free. Sorry!.

The face plate which holds the crystal on my fossil watch popped up when I turned it and I can't figure out how to pop it back in place.

This is called BEZEL (you say face plate). It is snap on fitted and must be pushed back on to case. Some bezels are very hard to fit.If there is not enough strength in your fingers to push it back, then you will have no option, but to visit your nearest watch repair shop. Watchmakers are using special press for fitting bezels.

Fossil ch 2470 watch. I have no idea what the extra little dials are for on the face and how to set them. Please help

The dials are part of a Chronograph (stop watch) I assume there is a second, minute, and maybe a date function. Usually the large second hand is part of the stop watch on only moves when you start the stopwatch (top right button) push again to stop and reset back too zero is the bottom button. Usually to set or zero out those dials pull out the crown to the first click (also sets date) then push the top button to set the seconds (big hand) and the bottom button to set the other. sometimes you may need to pull the crown out to the second click (also sets hour and minutes) to set add'l dials. This is generally how you set most chronograph watches the button you push and what moves may be different.
