How can i change the date and time ?
I think I figured it out by accident. Press and hold the top left button (mode) until the numbers start blinking. On mine this is the alarm time set. Press the mode button one more time to get to time set. The hour will be blinking. Press top right button (start/stop) to cycle through hour, minute, date, etc. and press bottom right button (adjust) to change the number which is flashing. Press mode to finish
Etting the Timex 1440 Sports WR50MT5G891:
Press and hold he start/stop button then press (while holding the start/stop button) the mode button. You will see a P appear, this will take it off military time. To place back on same process, just push until the P disappears.
This should work for some:
This model (WR50M) has four buttons, from top left, clockwise: 1) Set; 2) Start/Stop; 3) Indigo and 4)Mode
1. Press and hold set (upper left). Seconds will blink.
2. Press lower left button (Mode). Hours will start to blink.
3. Press upper right button (Start/Stop) to move ahead one hour.
4. Press mode button again to return to standard operating mode.
Everyone's model of this watch seems to work a little differently. :) Here's what worked for me. My model has 4 buttons.
1. Press and hold mode (upper left). Seconds will blink.
2. Press lower left button (sorry, don't know the button's name). Hours will start to blink.
3. Press upper right button to move ahead one hour.
4. Press mode button again to return to standard operating mode.
Three different buttons for one simple operation...setting your watch for daylight savings time.
This watch is radio controlled & should automatically set itself. The signal comes from Colorado and is the strongest between the hours of 10:00 pm & 2:00am. Also weather can interfere with the signal so I tell people to give them a couple of days to pick up. It also helps to put the watch near a window to help pick up the signal. If you tried all these things & it still isn't right you can set if manually by doing the following.
To set watch press & hold the adjust button until the time digits start to flash.
Press start/stop or split/reset to set time go through 12 hours to get to AM/PM
Press mode to select date press start/stop or split/reset to set date go through 12 months to set year day will change automatically.
Press adjust when done.
Spend another 20 bucks and throw it away

NOT HAPPY JAN
NOT WORTH THE PRICE YOU PAY FOR THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My suggestion is to not buy this watch at all if you did take it back or throw it away its not worth the aggravation trying to figure it out as it is not user friendly because the instructions given do not match the watch!!!!
Not sure how to set time and date
I don't know where the adjust button or the start/stop butttons are to set the time. A diagram of where these buttons are would be so helpful. Thank you
Don't ask me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

Hi Cindy,
To set the digital time and date on your Timex, please follow the steps below.
1. Press and hold the "Set" button for 2 seconds. The "Set" button is on the lower right side.
2. Press the "Date Advance" button on the upper right side. This will reset the seconds.
3. Press the "Change Mode" button on the lower left to set the hour. The hour will flash. Press the "Date Advance" button until the correct hour is displayed.
4. Press the "Change Mode" button again to set the correct 10s unit (first digit 1 or 0) for the minutes. Press the "Date Advance" button until the correct first digit of the minutes is displayed. Repeat this step to set the second digit of the minutes.
5. Repeat Steps 1 through 4 of this section to set the year, month, date and day and whether to use 12- or 24-hour time for your watch.
6. When finished, press the "Set" button (on the lower right) to return to the current time view and lock in your settings.
Hope it helps.

Had same problem. Posted solutions are close but names/placement of buttons was different for me. For me, use the mode button (lower left) to get to what you want to change, then press and hold set (top left) until it beeps and item blinks (such as the hour value). Use the start/stop button (top right) to change values. Keep using the mode button to go from hour to minute to date to day. When done, press set button again.
