Opsætningsinstruktioner
1. Indledende vikling
Your Timex M79 watch is equipped with an automatic movement, meaning it is powered by the motion of your wrist. For initial setup or if the watch has stopped due to lack of wear, it can be manually wound:
- Sørg for, at kronen er i position 1 (helt trykket ind).
- Rotate the crown clockwise approximately 20-30 times. This will provide enough power for the watch to start running.
- Once started, normal daily wear will keep the watch wound.
2. Indstilling af tid og dato

- Indstilling af dato: Gently pull the crown out to position 2. Rotate the crown clockwise or counter-clockwise until the correct date is displayed. Avoid setting the date between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can interfere with the automatic date change mechanism.
- Indstilling af tid: Pull the crown out to position 3 (farthest out). Rotate the crown to move the hands clockwise until the correct time is displayed. To ensure the AM/PM is correct, advance the time past 12 o'clock; if the date changes, you are in the AM hours.
- Once the time and date are set, push the crown back into position 1 (fully pushed in) to secure it and ensure water resistance.
3. Adjusting the Stainless Steel Bracelet
The stainless steel bracelet features a unique adjustable clasp. Proper adjustment is crucial for comfort and security.

- Locate the adjustable clasp on the bracelet. It typically has a small lever or tab that needs to be lifted.
- Using a small, flat-head screwdriver or a specialized tool, gently pry open the locking mechanism on the clasp.
- Slide the clasp along the bracelet to achieve the desired length. Ensure the clasp is seated between the links for a secure fit.
- Once positioned, firmly press down the locking mechanism until it snaps securely into place.
- Test the fit to ensure it is comfortable and the clasp holds firmly.
Betjening af dit automatiske ur
Automatisk bevægelse
The Timex M79 utilizes an automatic mechanical movement. This means the watch is powered by the natural motion of your wrist. As you move, an oscillating weight inside the watch rotates, winding the mainspring and storing energy.

Power Reserve
When fully wound, the watch has a power reserve of approximately 40 hours. If the watch is not worn for an extended period (e.g., overnight or for more than 40 hours), it may stop. In such cases, manually wind the watch as described in the 'Initial Winding' section before wearing it again.
Urkrans funktioner
The watch features a unidirectional rotating bezel. This bezel can be used to track elapsed time, such as dive times or other timed events. Rotate the bezel counter-clockwise to align the zero marker with the minute hand at the start of your timed event. Read the elapsed time by noting the minute hand's position against the bezel's markings.
Pleje og vedligeholdelse
Vandmodstand
Your Timex M79 watch is water-resistant up to 50 meters (164 feet). This rating means it is suitable for short periods of recreational swimming, showering, or washing hands. It is ikke Velegnet til dykning, snorkling eller vandsport med høj belastning. Sørg altid for, at kronen er trykket helt ind, før den kommer i kontakt med vand.
Akryl linsepleje
The watch features an acrylic lens, which is durable but can be susceptible to scratches. To maintain its clarity:
- Avoid contact with abrasive surfaces.
- Rengør linsen med en blød, damp klæde.
- Minor scratches can often be buffed out using a specialized acrylic polish.
Rengøring af dit ur
For at holde dit ur i topform:
- Wipe the case and bracelet with a soft, dry cloth regularly.
- For komponenter i rustfrit stål, en let damp cloth can be used, followed by drying with a soft, lint-free cloth.
- Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the watch's finish.
Fejlfinding
Uret kører ikke eller mister tid
If your automatic watch stops or consistently loses time, consider the following:
- Utilstrækkelig vikling: Automatic watches require consistent wrist motion to stay wound. If you have a sedentary lifestyle or do not wear the watch daily, it may not receive enough motion. Manually wind the watch (20-30 clockwise rotations of the crown in position 1) to ensure it has sufficient power.
- Power Reserve Depleted: If the watch has been off your wrist for more than 40 hours, its power reserve will be depleted. Manually wind it to restart.
- Magnetiske felter: Strong magnetic fields can affect the accuracy of mechanical watches. Keep your watch away from strong magnets (e.g., speakers, certain electronic devices).
Bracelet Clasp Issues
If the bracelet clasp feels loose or opens unexpectedly:
- Improper Adjustment: Re-check the adjustment of the clasp as described in the 'Adjusting the Stainless Steel Bracelet' section. Ensure the locking mechanism is fully engaged and seated correctly between the links.
- Slitage: Over time, clasps can experience wear. If the issue persists after proper adjustment, contact Timex customer support for assistance.
Date Not Changing Correctly
If the date does not advance at midnight:
- Time Setting Error: Ensure the watch's time is set correctly for AM/PM. If the watch thinks it's 12 PM when it's actually 12 AM, the date will change at noon instead of midnight. Adjust the time by advancing it 12 hours.
- Avoid Setting During Change Window: Do not adjust the date manually between 9 PM and 3 AM, as this can damage the date mechanism.
