Looking for Watch Instructions

rogue-entity

I have my Dads old Casio AW-600 Chronograph (Module no. 373). The thing is, the instructions are long since lost, and I havent the foggiest how to set time on the analogue hands, since they are set somehow through the 4 buttons on the side (no crown as on a regular watch). By fluke I had managed to get it to the right time, but I was off by 5 minutes, and as a result, the digital part of the watch is showing the correct time, but the hands are not.

If anyone can help me find instructions for this (I have tried Google to no avail) I would greatly appreciate it.

PS: Mods, feel free to move this.. honestly.. I dont know what forum this fits in best.

Have you tried the casio manual archives ?

Yes I have, but when I enter the module number (373), it says that it cannot find any. My guess is that their are no digital copies, remember, this watch was bought in the early 90s (around 93/94) so their may not be digital copies for all I know.

I figured out some of the basic functions.. but I would like to get a copy of the instructions so I can find out what the other functions do..

Thanks though.

what you need is on page 3 of the german manual

my german is rusty ... but the paragraph on "Zeigereinstellmodus" tells you how to set the pointers

press A (button - top left as you look at the watch) until the seconds piece of the digital display flashes
then press A again until the display reads H-SET ... I guess for Hand Set

press C (button bottom left as you look at the watch) to move the minute hand clockwise, which over time will move the hour hand as well ... there appears to be no way to set the hour / minute seperately

there is a paragraph on how to set the second hand also .. but my rusty german is struggling with this ... I think it says press the A button until the display reads Seconds to set the seconds hand, and then press A again until the display reads Hours/Minutes or maybe just Hands

hope this helps
