About Your Watch

Congratulations on purchasing your TIMEX® watch. Please read these instructions carefully to understand how to operate your Timex timepiece. Your watch may not have all of the features described in this booklet.

For more information, and to register your product, please visit Timex.com.

How to Start Your Watch

To start your watch, remove the plastic guard from under the crown, then press the crown in against the case. The second hand will begin advancing in one-second intervals.

Some deep-depth water-resistant watches require the setting crown to be screwed in to secure water-resistance. If your watch case has a protrusion with screw threads, the crown must be screwed in after setting the watch.

To screw in, push the crown firmly against the threaded protrusion and hold in while turning the crown clockwise. Continue to screw in the crown until it is tight. You will need to unscrew the crown (counter-clockwise) before pulling it out the next time you want to set your watch.

Water and Shock Resistance

If your watch is water-resistant, meter marking (Water resistance wave mark) is indicated.

Water-Resistance Depth p.s.i.a.* Water Pressure Below Surface
30m/98ft60
50m/164ft86
100m/328ft160
200m/656ft284

Elapsed Time Ring

If your watch is equipped with a rotatable outer ring on the face, with numbers corresponding to minutes, you can use this Elapsed Time Ring to time an activity from the start, or to mark the ending time for the duration of an activity.

To Time an Activity from the Start

Set the Start/Stop triangle at the time (hour or minute) when you start the activity (as shown on the left in the illustration shown below). At completion, you can see how long the activity took.

Two watch bezels with a rotating elapsed time ring, showing the Start/Stop triangle set at the start of an activity on the left, and the elapsed position on the right

To Measure the Time Remaining

Set the triangle to the hour or minute position when you wish to complete the activity, and check the watch periodically for progress towards that goal.

In the illustration shown above on the right you can stop when the minute hand reaches the 20 minutes past the hour position.

Tachymeter Ring

The tachymeter feature can be used to measure speed in miles per hour (MPH), nautical miles per hour (knots) or kilometers per hour (KPH) using the sweep second hand and the scale on the wall above the watch face. You need to know the actual distance you are covering in miles or km.

Start the chronograph with the second hand at zero (the twelve o’clock position). Within the first minute, the second hand will point to the rate for a one-mile (or one kilometer) course: if it takes 45 seconds, the hand will point to 80 at that position – 80 MPH or 80 KPH.

If within the first minute, a distance greater than one mile or kilometer is covered, multiply the tachymeter number by the distance to get the actual rate: if you went 1.2 miles in 45 seconds, multiply the 80 by 1.2 – 96 MPH.

Compass Ring

If your watch is equipped with a movable ring around the dial marked at the letters “N”, “E”, “W”, “S” (for the four compass directions) or compass degrees, you can use this feature to find an approximate compass directional reading.

  1. Lay the watch on a flat surface, or hold it so that the face is parallel to the ground.
  2. Locate the sun and point the hour hand at the sun.
  3. In the A.M., rotate the ring until the “S” (south) marker is halfway between the hour hand and 12:00 (after the hour hand or within the shortest distance between the hour hand and 12:00).
  4. In the P.M., rotate the ring until “S” is before the hour hand and halfway between the hour hand and 12:00.
