Citizen Radio Controlled Caliber E650 FAQ

Next up I wanted to include some frequently asked questions about these watches.

My watch is currently set to the wrong city, how do I change this?

First, pull out the crown to the first click position
Secondly rotate the crown slowly to pick the desired city of your choice
Once you’ve picked out the correct city, simply gently push the crown back in and the watch will now begin to operate with the selected cities time

The displayed time is incorrect, how can I update the watch?

You have two options, you can either manually reset the time, or have the watch update with a new signal
For manual resetting please see the video
For a signal update please follow the following instructions
Remove the crown then press down and hold the pusher button at the 4 o’clock position for 2-3 seconds
A tone should now be audible. Once you hear it the watch is now set to manual receiving mode
Place the watch face up by a south facing window with the 6 o’clock position pointing outwards, this will give you the best chance of receiving a signal
Once left for a couple of hours the watch should receive a new signal

How is the alarm setup?

Setting up the alarm of a Citizen Eco-Drive E650 can seem a little daunting at first but with these instructions, you should be able to manage it easily enough.

First, pull the crown out to the first click position, then rotate it until the mode hands point to the “ALM” section
Next, you want to pull the crown out to the second click position and rotate until the alarm time you require is selected, you’ll want to keep an eye on the AM/PM time in the 10 o’clock sub-dial when you do this
Once you pick the correct alarm time you’ll want to press and release the pusher button at the 2 o’clock position to set the alarm On or OFF as displayed by the second hand
Lastly, you’ll want to push the crown into the first click position making sure you then rotate to select the required city, to finish finally return the crown to the original position for normal time functions to continue

The second hand of the watch is jumping a few seconds at a time, what’s wrong with it?

This isn’t something you have to worry about, it’s a common feature on many Citizen Eco-Drive watches to display that the watch is running low on power, a handy feature to have actually
Once you notice the second hand jumping on a E650 you’ll have approximately 3 more days of power
The solution is to recharge your watch using any strong light source that’s available, leaving it in direct sunlight, even on a cloudy day for 2-3 hours should be enough
