LEAP YEAR OFFSET
To maintain the correct date, the watch includes a setting
for the current leap year offset. This setting is made at the
Timex factory or after battery replacement and cannot be
changed, only viewed.
To view the offset, pull the crown to its middle position.
The date hand shows the offset: 1 = 1 year after leap
year; 2 = 2 years after leap year; 3 = 3 years after leap
year; 4 = leap year. Push the crown in when done and
the hands resume their normal display of day, month,
and date.
INTRODUCTION
With your watch’s perpetual calendar feature, the
date does not need adjustment until 2100. The watch
automatically accounts for short months and leap years,
always showing the correct day and date. The day and date
were preset at the Timex factory. You only need to adjust
the time. The watch has two recessed push buttons for
use by Timex Service Center to set the day and date after
battery replacement. They have no use otherwise.
