There are many reviews of this model, but almost no videos on how to set it up, except the Citizen's own video which some people might have trouble following, so I decided to do a video of the initial setup of the watch, and tried to explain everything as simple as I could, with examples.
I hope you enjoy, and I hope it helps someone!

I followed everything and my watch still will not show the correct day of the week. Its actually not on any day at all.. Any help? Thank you.

@WatchGeek 6 лет назад

+Mr Mac it means your battery is low. When the battery drops below a certain level it will stop showing day of week and show the battery level all the time. Place your watch on a window sill facing outside for a couple of days and it should be OK

@Kingstonsmac 6 лет назад

Watch Geek Man thank you so much ! It has been driving me crazy and I couldn’t find the answer anywhere. Even took it to a watch store today. You sure know your stuff ! Thank you so so much. I will be sure to keep following you. Thanks again. Take care ! :)

@luizdp9719 6 лет назад

Watch Geek, it also worked for me. I had just purchased one and I thought it was broken. Sent an email to Citzen and they asked me to mail it to them. Instead, I watched your video and as soon as it charged it worked. Thanks for this great video!

@WatchGeek 6 лет назад

I'm glad I helped, now email them and tell them about my videos 😄

@JurgenADV 6 лет назад

Watch Geek knows far(far) more than me--- but one other thing that worked for me was pulling the crown out. Had an ecodrive that wouldn't take a charge after too long in the dark (long sad story). I pulled the crown and left it in the window sill for a full day. Now it works great.

This is the best video on how to set up this model. I do have the women’s version of this caliber h820. These are wonderful watches, I have bought mine in 2021 and I love it! It takes some time to master on how to set it up , but thanks to this video learning is a piece of cake! Thank you 🙏

@WatchGeek 2 месяца назад

I'm glad to hear this video is still helpful!!

@jhalbmaier 2 года назад

Thank you. I had stopped wearing my watch for a couple of years. It was totally off. I had to bCk up and watch this a couple of times but I have it set. Thank again!

@nwithyman 7 лет назад

This has to be one of the best, most succinct and understandable instructional videos that I have seen in a very long time, clearly describing in simple terms and with quality video/commentary, a quite complicated sequence of actions required to set up this excellent watch. My sincere thanks!

@WatchGeek 7 лет назад

+Nigel Withyman you're very welcome, and a big thanks for the kind words 😊

@themekannik 4 года назад

THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO. Bought my H820 a year ago and the time was always 20 minutes off. Never saw directions on how to zero the hands. THANK YOU!

@henrivacas36 4 месяца назад

Thank you from Swizerland. I've saw your amazing video probably 10 times to finaly adjust my wife's watch.

@sffan2 2 года назад

Thank you. Yours was one of the videos I watched when I got my AT9064. And it's the one I call up most often when I need reminding how to change 2ndary time when I travel.

@barryfisher3881 7 лет назад

Please let me thank you for the FANTASTIC AND RARE VIDEO you have posted. Your video is entirely accurate and effective on every level. It has helped me immensely. I actually bought the watch discounted from a supplier who thought it was broken yet upon following your instructions I managed to obtain this fantastic watch at a discounted price...although it was the Women's model. Subsequently, I bought the Mens model for the normal price and because of you I am able to set it as well and use it perfectly. THANK YOU. My Fiancé and I are in the process of setting her Citizen Atomic in conjunction with mine for dual time...she in London and me in L.A. Thank you thank you thank you. I am indebted to you.

@WatchGeek 7 лет назад

+Barry Fisher I'm glad I could help 😊 I hope your watch serves you for many years! A couple of my friends got their solar atomic watches almost for free, because the store got tired of people returning them as broken, since nobody knew how to correct the hands. They bought the watches, I set them up, and it's been on their wrists for almost 5 years now, so it DOES happen. That's one of the reasons I do these videos, so people can learn just how awesome these watches are when you know how to operate them 😜

@CosminGCole97 6 лет назад

Life saver ! Just got this and it was driving me nuts - now it works perfectly !

@WatchGeek 6 лет назад

I'm glad I helped 😊

@JeffreyThreat77 6 лет назад

Used this video to set up my AT9030-80L. Perfect! Thanks for the video!

@WatchGeek 6 лет назад

+Jeffrey Threat I'm glad I helped and enjoy your watch 😊👍

@Antares_451 4 года назад

Watch this video 2 yrs ago. Somehow i didn't realize i had the SMT on instead of STD and with the recent time changed my watch actually jumped ahead 2hrs, lol. So, i searched my history and watch again to adjust for daylight saving time. Thank you again...

@jburns3665 6 лет назад

This instructional video is still applicable today. I just used it on my AT9030 80L. What I thought was a broken timepiece is now set up to function perfectly. Thank you so much!

@jamdownyute 3 года назад

Thank you for simplifying what was for me an unsolvable puzzle. Your precise progression of the settings of this watch is immaculate and I am indeed grateful for your video. Thanks a million

@robbieweise8705 6 лет назад

I received this watch yesterday and with this video I didn't even have to open the manual. Took 20 minutes and everything is setup and running perfectly. Thanks for taking the time to make this. I don't usually review things but if I leave a review anywhere for the watch I'll be linking this video with it.

@WatchGeek 6 лет назад

Haha thanks and congrats on a new watch 👍

@ziadal-kadhimi2936 4 года назад

Many Thanks! Very usefull discription and recommendation.

@stanmann1984 5 лет назад

I just got mine in the mail today and after watching this vid for 2 weeks straight lol I had this beautiful timepiece all set and ready to go in 5 minutes😎 I can't thank you enough for this very informative vid!!! Oh just a side note: Pictures online DO NOT do this watch justice! It is simply gorgeous!

@WatchGeek 5 лет назад

Congrats and yes, the watch is truly gorgeous in person 😊

@apg7479 6 лет назад

You sir a flipping legend! I bought this watch and the store included wrong the manual. I was completely confused with how to set this watch up and you answered all of my questions with your video. Much appreciation! All the best!

@WatchGeek 6 лет назад

+Alex Gillott I'm glad I could help 😊 All the best in 2018.

@erickquero2407 7 лет назад

I had such a hard time understanding the instruction manual for this watch but you just make it easy with this "How To" .Finally after a long time I was able to set the time and date by watching this video. Thank you!

@WatchGeek 7 лет назад

+Erick Kero you are welcome and I am glad I helped at least one person! :)

@jrlucas6712 5 лет назад

Amazing video!!! I have struggled to get my watch back up and running correctly. Even multiple stores, that sell Citizen watches, couldn't get it correct and I just now did it in 15 minutes!!!!!

@WatchGeek 5 лет назад

I'm glad I helped 😁

@z33317 5 лет назад

I came across this watch online and thought of buying it, but was hesitant due to complicated nature of this type watch. Your video will be very helpful should I end up buying one. Thank you for a very informative video. I like that you didn't rush through the setup so I could really see how it's done.

@JasonMariusZamora 7 лет назад

great help indeed thank you. I bought mine last 2016 of May. I had a problem with low battery, it wouldn't show the day indicator, instead, it showed the low level of battery ( my bad ) when every time i keep my watch, it's always inside a vault which is totally dark for a long period of days/weeks, so it was impossible to adjust the day hand. i charged it for like one day in a bright lamp stand 6 inches away then i adjusted the day hand:)

@WatchGeek 7 лет назад

+DANCE For Life Zamora Brothers you should avoid keeping the watch in complete darkness as it will decrease the battery life dramatically and you will need to replace it way before it's expected life as repeated complete discharge hurts the battery a lot. When you don't wear the watch try to store it out of the box in a room with normal ambient light

@dejuans1328 6 лет назад

For some reason I didn't get a manual when I purchased mine. Glad I didn't as I would not have discovered the video. Perfectly stated and my watch is set for life including the leap year and automatic daylights savings time. You're the man. You took all the complexity out of setting up this amazing watch.

@WatchGeek 6 лет назад

I'm glad I helped 😁

@danteahan9494 3 года назад

My 9030 died in watch box... too many watches. I could not figure out how to set it up. Thank you for an awesome video I really love this watch. Lot of watch for the money.

@BB-tm7gx 2 года назад

I loved this watch and i lost it. 2 years later my wife found it but it was dead. i tried everything until it went in the bin, unknown to me she took it out of the bin put it in the drawer. Then my wife found this Video so i'm trying again. she's really is google. Thanks for the video it's great. From a stressed pilot

@TheVictor0911 7 лет назад

Wow, i have been trying to do this for three years, thanks so much.

@WatchGeek 7 лет назад

+Victor Hayes haha I'm glad I could help :)

@TheVictor0911 7 лет назад

It is very funny, bought it crusing the Med, it worked great till i put it in a drawer LOL, its a great watch from what I have been told. thanks again. Vic

@WatchGeek 7 лет назад

+Victor Hayes don't store it in a drawer as that is the only thing that can kill these watches, if storing for a long period of time leave them in a lit room (normal daylight) because storing them in the dark for a long time damages and greatly reduces the battery life, if kept in normal lighting conditions you can expect 20+ years on a single battery, and YES it is a great watch :)

@ashok.t2141 3 года назад

Sir thanks for your explanation on this great best citizen watch and this watch is a wonderful world class for a middle class common man

@Bluebison68 5 лет назад

I tried to a few videos and was lost in the steps. This was the video that finally taught me how to change the time manually. Thank you for posting and explaining it so well.

@dfly2006 4 года назад

This video is OUTSTANDING 👍 Makes the instruction manual understandable. Thank you !

@petermichaels9802 6 лет назад

Extremely helpful instructions by you, Watch Geek, better than the official Citizen instructions. I’ve had this watch for about 4 years now and it is truly a great timepiece.

@WatchGeek 6 лет назад

Thanks for the kind words and I find it to be one of the best watches Citizen ever made

@NeilSpoonhower 5 лет назад

I searched on line and looked at several videos to get my watch figured out. Of all the "advice" yours was the only that worked...great job!!

@WatchGeek 5 лет назад

That's nice to hear 😊

@ocdetails 4 года назад

Hands down the BEST video on how to operate these complicated watches. This isn't my first radio controlled Citizen with these functions, but every time I get a new one I have to google how to set it up. I wish they all had videos so easy to understand and follow. Well done!

@johnsrajasingh 6 лет назад

Thank you for explaining this watch in detail. It helped me understand my watch and admire the true beauty of Citizen Calibre H820 movement.

@WatchGeek 6 лет назад

I'm glad I helped and I hope you'll enjoy it for years to come. Just avoid storing it in complete darkness for long periods of time and you can expect A VERY VERY long life with it

@Max_Brugman Год назад

Thank you! This worked so good! I messed it up by just turning the arms couldnt get is back! Now its proper set up aswell! Thanks again!

@Hitokiri2000 7 лет назад

I have one of these awesome watches and I really love it, so much in fact that I also gave my mom one of the ladies versions for christmas last year. I have never had any issues with the settings my self. But I will say that your video about it's various functions is just spot on. You will help all those who have trouble figuring out how to set the various functions. The way you show it makes it really easy. Thank you for your good work.

@WatchGeek 7 лет назад

Hitokiri2000 I'm glad you enjoyed the video! it is one of the best quartz movements made today in my opinion, and I haven't covered everything about it, the one thing I didn't mention is the manual vs automatic DST setting, but I figured if you get to that point you will be able to find it in the manual

@Hitokiri2000 7 лет назад

Yes I have activated the Auto DST setting on both my own and my moms.

@petermax5143 6 лет назад

@MrSweck71 Год назад

Got my 9030-55L yesterday and I'm grateful for this tutorial. It was a huge leap in complexity from my old Citizen, so I'm sure it saved me a few hours... and days of "I wonder if I did it right"-wondering. 😆

@Ihaveseenthings577 4 года назад

You Sir, by far have done the most understanding Instructions as well as the Citizens Customer Service wich both times I have called them, they have done a Super Job in helping me in how set the watch, this video I am saving just in case, Thank You very much for taking time to do this video, if anyone have trouble in following your instructions they are not to carry this master piece, again Thank You very much and Good Luck...👽🤙

@murderwasthebass1 4 года назад

I have this watch and I absolutely love it. People often compliment me on it. I love the orange accents against the black dial. So many cool technologies implemented in this timepiece.

Turns out you were correct you had to reset everything like you showed in the video... Thanks a million for your help

My watch has been sitting for a year because it wouldn’t set correctly. Your video just fixed it, wish I could shake your hand

@jeffsimic852 5 лет назад

GREAT VIDEO. Extremely helpful. My watch had been apparently sitting in the dark before I received it a couple of days ago so had to soak it in the sun and then try and figure out how to set it. With your video and by following your instructions I was able to do so easily. THANK YOU!!!!!

@WatchGeek 5 лет назад

You're very welcome

@DaddyRod87 5 лет назад

I just purchased this watch and I did have the same problem with it not showing the day of the week instead it was showing the battery all the time. After watching your tutorial video and reading some of your comments, I am glad nothing was wrong with it and it just needed to be charged. Thank you so much! I also liked your video for the Citizen Grand Touring Sport, as it was my second watch purchased. Very happy with both watches. Like your reviews and your tutorials. Just subscribed. Thank you again for your great videos and your help!

@riezan Год назад

I just lost mine 2 weeks ago after 4 years of wearing it almost every day. And thinking to get another one because I love the design and functionality. Do you all think I should get it since this is a 10-year-old release or maybe there's an alternative newest model similar to this design (perpetual calendar, simple yet bold, day date, no Crono, no complicated/busy design and no automatic)
