What You’ll Need
- A Citizen Eco-Drive watch
- A soft cloth or a watch case opener
Step 1: Prepare Your Watch
Before you start changing the time, make sure your watch is ready. If your watch has a screw-down crown, unscrew it by turning it counterclockwise. If you have a regular crown, gently pull it out to the first or second position. This will allow you to adjust the time.
Step 2: Set the Date and Time
The next step is to set the date and time on your Citizen Eco-Drive watch.
For watches with a screw-down crown, rotate the crown clockwise until the date starts changing. Continue rotating until the correct date is displayed. Then, pull the crown out to the second position and rotate it clockwise or counterclockwise to set the desired time. Once you have set the time, push the crown back in and tighten it by turning it clockwise.
If your watch has a regular crown, simply pull it out to the first or second position and rotate it clockwise or counterclockwise to adjust the date and time. Once you have set the desired time, push the crown back in.
Step 3: Check and Confirm
After setting the date and time, always double-check if everything is accurate. Look for the AM or PM indicator to ensure the time is set correctly. Additionally, observe the date change to ensure it advances at midnight.
Step 4: Adjust for Daylight Saving Time
If you live in an area that observes daylight saving time, you may need to adjust your Citizen Eco-Drive watch twice a year. To make the necessary adjustments, follow the same steps outlined in Step 2.
Changing the time on a Citizen Eco-Drive watch is a straightforward process once you know the proper steps. By following this guide, you can always keep your watch displaying the accurate time and date. So go ahead, confidently adjust your Citizen Eco-Drive watch and enjoy its reliable and sustainable timekeeping!
