Armitron watch, how do I set the timer on it ? oldie but goodie here?

Question

Hi,I have an inexpensive Armitron watch that is plastic like and it has the 4 buttons on the edges. Mode, Adj, st/sp, el ????????? go figure for a 56 year old, but I'm sure there are like a billion of you out there who can do this while you are sleeping. I've only had watches like set the moving hands :) So I want to set the alarm or use it like a timer, set for 15 minutes and an alarm goes off. Can I do this and how, thanks I"ll help you with history questions back to 1950 :)

Answer 1

mode - selects from timer, alarm, clock, etc.
indication of which mode u are in may be harder to figure out

adj - sets the digits or combination of 2 digits

st/sp - for use in timer mode STarts/STops timer

el ??? - may select the digit(s) to change or turn on/off alarm

HOWEVER, most of these are not countdown timers so u have to use the alarm set for the time u want it to alarm.

Answer 2

Ooh yer naughty gal! That was GREAT! I laughed so much I have stomach cramps! Reminds me of the elderly couple who went to the Doc and after some embarrasment, ask him to check if they were doing the deed right. They then went on to go at it like two rabbits in season, to the amazement of the much younger physician. "Nope, can't see that you're doing anything wrong - as a matter of fact, I am amazed at your techniqiues and stamina- WOW!" he quips. A week later the couple is there again and the scene repeats itself . . . And a week later again. . . and a third time again! The Doc become suspicious and asks the old man: "Come on - out with the truth, what is going on here?!" The octogenarian replies: "Well we're married, but not necessarily to each other. Her husband is retired and stays home all the time - my wife is a home body too, our pensions doesn't allow for expensive motels rooms, so we come to do it here, under supervision in case of medical problems - and the best of all is, the Medical Aid Insurance pays for it too!"
