This will provide you with basic instructions on how to set an average Casio Baby G watch, both digital and digital/analogue. Based on Australian models.

Steps

  1. Familiarise yourself with the pushers (the buttons at the side of the watch). Top left is generally your "adjust" button, bottom left "mode", and top right and bottom right will allow you to alter number values up and down.
  2. Make sure you're on the main time screen. Press the bottom left "mode" button to run through the screens if you're not sure - you will pass things such as the Hand Set, alarm, stopwatch, timer and world time. The main time screen will generally come up after world time. Press the bottom left button each time you want to change screen.
  3. When on the main time screen, hold down the top left "adjust" button for a couple of seconds. You will hear a beep and the numbers will begin to flash, usually starting with the seconds. (Depending on the style of watch, your Home City may flash first. If so, use the top right and bottom right buttons to change the city to the nearest one to you in the same time zone. E.g. if you are in Brisbane, Australia, set it to Syd (Sydney).)
  4. Change the seconds by using the top right or bottom right buttons (depending on if you want to go up or down) and then press the bottom left "mode" button to move on to the next part of the time. If you don't want to set the seconds, just press "mode" straight away.
  5. Now either the hour or minutes will be flashing. Use the top right and bottom right buttons to adjust. Press mode to move on to the other time value (hour or minute, depending on what you changed first). Once you have the time right, press the bottom left "mode" button again.
  6. It should now let you change the date. Again, using the top right and bottom right buttons, adjust the day, month or year depending on what the watch lets you change first. Press the bottom left "mode" button to progress to the next part of the date and repeat until day, month and year are all correct.
  7. Depending on the model of your watch, if may now ask you to select whether you want 12hr or 24hr time. Select using top right/bottom right buttons and hit mode again. When you have set every element, you will eventually be brought back to the start (i.e. flashing seconds or flashing Home City, depending on the watch).
  8. To finish, press the top left "adjust" button to lock in your time. Presto, you're done! Unless you have a digi/analogue watch, in which case read on.
  9. If your watch has an analogue time as well as digital time, if you're very lucky the watch will automatically calibrate the analogue time to match the digital time. If your watch doesn't do this (i.e. the hands tell a different time to the digital), press the bottom left "mode" button until the digital screen says "H-S (with the digital time)" "H-S" "Hand Set" "Hand Set (digi time)" or similar. This is your hand set screen.
  10. Now hold in the top left "adjust" button for a couple of seconds. You will hear a beep and the digital screen will probably start flashing. Use the top right and bottom right buttons to move the hands. Some models will only let you move one way using the bottom right button so you may have to be patient. Pressing the bottom right button moves the minute hand by one minute and holding it in will make the hand move around faster.
  11. Hold the bottom right button in to move the minute hand. You may have to wait to go through the hours until it matches with the digital time. As you get closer to the right time (e.g. you are 10 minutes off being correct) stop holding the bottom right button and press it the final few times to set it to the time you need. If you hold on too long, you may go past the time you need and have to go around all over again. V. frustrating.
  12. When the hands match the digi time, press top left "adjust" button to lock it in and you're done! Some watches may automatically return you to the main time screen. If your digi screen still says "H-S" "H-Set" etc. then hit the bottom left "mode" button until you come back around to the main screen.
  13. Enjoy your Baby G Watch now that it tells the right time!

Tips

  • Most Casio Baby G watches are more or less the same when it comes to setting the time, so these instructions should work for almost any style. It is based on models available in Australia and instructions may vary for models available elsewhere in the world.
  • Depending on the model of your watch, Casio may have the instruction manual available online. Use the 4-digit number on the back casing of the watch, or the model number, to do a search.
