Setup
Setting Time and Date
- Pull the Crown: Gently pull the crown (the small knob on the side of the watch case) out to the first or second position.
- First Position (Date Setting): If your watch has a date window, pulling the crown to the first position typically allows you to adjust the date by rotating the crown. Rotate until the correct date is displayed.
- Second Position (Time Setting): Pulling the crown to the second position (further out) will stop the second hand and allow you to adjust the hour and minute hands. Rotate the crown to set the correct time.
- Synchronize Time: For precise time setting, coordinate with a reliable time source.
- Push the Crown In: Once the time and date are set, push the crown back into its original position against the watch case. This will restart the watch movement.

Maintenance
Water Resistance
The Timex Expedition Scout watch is water resistant to 50 meters (165 feet). This means it is suitable for short periods of recreational swimming. It is not suitable for diving or snorkeling.
- Ensure the crown is fully pushed in before any water exposure.
- Avoid operating the crown or pushers while the watch is wet or submerged.
- After exposure to saltwater, rinse the watch with fresh water and dry thoroughly.
General Care
- Clean the watch case and strap regularly with a soft, damp cloth.
- Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight for prolonged periods, and strong magnetic fields.
- Replace the battery as needed. The watch uses 1 Lithium Metal battery.
Troubleshooting
- Watch not running: Check if the crown is fully pushed in. If the watch still does not run, the battery may need replacement.
- Time inaccuracy: If the watch is consistently fast or slow, it may require adjustment or servicing by a qualified watch technician.
- Indiglo not working: Ensure the crown is pressed firmly. If it still doesn't illuminate, the battery may be low or depleted.
