Adjusting the time on your Sekonda watch depends on whether you own a Sekonda Smart Watch or a traditional analog or digital Sekonda timepiece. Each type has a distinct method for accurate time setting.
Adjusting Time on a Sekonda Smart Watch
Your Sekonda Smart Watch is designed for seamless time synchronization through its dedicated application.
- Automatic Update: Your Sekonda Smart Watch should automatically update to the correct time when it is connected to the Sekonda Smart app. This ensures your watch always displays the precise time without manual intervention.
- App Permissions: To guarantee this automatic update functions correctly, it is crucial to ensure that you have accepted all necessary permissions for the Sekonda Smart app within your smartphone's settings. This allows the app to communicate effectively with your watch and transmit accurate time data.
- Troubleshooting: If your smart watch isn't displaying the correct time, first verify that it is properly connected to the Sekonda Smart app via Bluetooth and that the app has all required permissions enabled on your smartphone.
Adjusting Time on a Traditional Sekonda Watch
For Sekonda watches that are not smart watches, the adjustment process typically involves interacting directly with the watch's physical controls.
Analog Watches (with a Crown)
Most traditional analog watches, including many Sekonda models, are adjusted using a crown on the side of the watch case.
- Locate the Crown: Identify the small, often ridged, knob on the side of your watch case, typically on the right-hand side.
- Pull Out the Crown: Gently pull the crown outwards. Many watches have two pull-out positions:
- First click: Often used for adjusting the date (if your watch has one).
- Second click (pulled out fully): This is the position for adjusting the time.
- Turn the Crown: Rotate the crown forwards or backward to move the hour and minute hands until they display the correct time.
- Push In the Crown: Once the time is set, carefully push the crown back in completely. This will re-engage the watch mechanism and protect the watch from dust and moisture.
- Tip: When setting the time, it's often recommended to advance the time slightly past the current time and then bring it back to the exact minute. This helps ensure the gears are properly engaged and reduces "backlash" in the movement.
Digital Watches (with Buttons)
Digital Sekonda watches typically use a series of buttons to navigate menus and set the time. While button functions can vary slightly between models, the general process is similar.
- Common Button Identification:
- MODE: Cycles through different display modes (e.g., time, date, stopwatch, alarm).
- SET/ADJUST: Used to enter and confirm setting modes.
- START/STOP/INCREASE: Increments numbers or starts/stops functions.
- RESET/LIGHT/DECREASE: Resets numbers, activates a backlight, or decrements numbers.
- General Setting Process:
- Enter Time Setting Mode: Press the MODE button repeatedly until the time display starts flashing, or you see a 'SET' indicator appear on the screen.
- Select Item to Adjust: Use the MODE or ADJUST button to cycle through the different elements you want to set (e.g., hours, minutes, seconds, 12/24-hour format, date, day).
- Adjust Value: Use the START/STOP or INCREASE/DECREASE buttons to change the flashing number or setting to the correct value.
- Confirm and Exit: Once all settings are correct, press the SET or MODE button again to exit the setting mode. The display should stop flashing, and the time will be set.

| Sekonda Smart Watch | Your watch automatically updates the time when connected to the Sekonda Smart app. Ensure the app has all necessary permissions in your smartphone settings for seamless synchronization. | Automatic synchronization via the app. |
| Traditional Analog | Locate the crown on the side of the watch. Pull the crown out fully to the time-setting position. Rotate the crown to move the hands to the correct time. Push the crown back in completely to secure the setting. | Manual crown rotation. |
| Traditional Digital | Press the MODE button repeatedly to enter time-setting mode (flashing digits). Use MODE or ADJUST to select the specific digit (hours, minutes) to change. Use START/STOP (or similar button) to increment/decrement the selected digit. Press SET or MODE again to exit and save the settings. | Button presses to navigate menus and adjust settings. |
