    I have not worn this watch in over 5 years because I have not been able to get it set. I have spent an amazing amount of hours and frustration following other instructions but Between your reset video and time setting video, in less than 15 minutes my watch is finally set. THANK YOU

    Hi. Thanks so much for this video. Pushing the button after the crown coming out fixed a very big headache.
    The explanation of setting the whole watch is superb.
    Massive thanks for the time! No pun intended, and effort to make the video. Top job.

    At last! Crystal clear instructions for setting this particular watch. I believe the watch has had a lot of unfair criticism from owners because they have difficulty setting it up. The instruction manual leaves a lot to be desired, it's far from clear, mainly down to translation problems. Well done, you have probably saved many E820's being consigned to a dusty drawer never to be used.

    If anyone from Citizen monitors this channel, listen well: You seriously need to hire this man to re-write your manuals! As they are now, they are incomprehensible, at least to English speakers. I found law school to be a piece of cake compared to setting my new Citizen watch by using the manual, and I finally gave up at about 4:00 a.m. last night. After spending 5 minutes with this guy, though, I get it. Thank you, my British friend!

    My husband has owned this watch for over 5 years but every year when we have Daylight Savings Time and have to move the clocks forward and back,we can’t figure out how to change the hour so he just wears it an hour off for part of the year. This video very easily helped solve that problem. I was able to change the hour and reset it. Thank you so much the easy instructions!

    In my Citizen Eco-Drive watch, you don’t need to re adjust the time after doing anything else in the settings, it was designed to calculate every single second even while you’re on any other mood like chronograph, alarm or calendar, so once you finish what you are doing, all what you need is to return it back to “Time” mode and keep watching it while adjusting itself amazingly 😊
    My watch has perpetual calendar too

I tried using the manual following its instructions to the t but it wasn't working now you've got me my watch back in 5 minutes. Cheers and keep up the good work 👍

      Hello, I think the watch needs a zero reset perhaps it lost power whilst being stored away in the shop. The watch would have a minimum 6 month power reserve as long as it had a full charge. These things are never explained clearly which is a shame for customers. Thanks for the comment

    This is cerainly a great video, i have to go to it twice a year to set my elderly neighbours watch, i have two questions/problems, the top right hand dial doesnt sit at 2 for two years past a leap year, should it? Also it is very difficult to flick the winding stem so that the hands move quickly, it takes me many attempts at it, eventually it does do it, but i couldnt be bothered with the hassle if it was my own watch tbh
