What are some tips for troubleshooting an Armitron Wr 165?

Most issues with the Armitron Wr 165 watch can be resolved by simply replacing the battery. However, since the watch contains many delicate electrical components, taking the watch to a local jeweler for inspection might be more prudent.

The Armitron Wr 165 model wrist watch offers several helpful features, including a display that relays time in hours, minutes, seconds, the date and the day of the week. Other features include a second time zone display, a programmable 24-hour alarm, an optional hourly chime, a chronograph, a countdown timer, a back lit display, a 12- or 24-hour time display, and water resistance up to 165 feet.

To switch between various features, use the B key. This allows the watch to shuffle through available modes. The order of the feature modes is as follows: Time Telling Mode, Chronograph Mode, Alarm Mode, Timer Mode and Second Time Zone Mode. To access the month and date display, hold down the C key. The display returns to Time Telling Mode upon the release of the C key.

Although the Armitron Wr 165 is a water-resistant watch, it is not waterproof. Therefore, it is unwise to operate the watch's buttons while underwater. Should water get into the watch, have the watch inspected by a local jeweler to assess any damage that might have occurred in the electronic components of the watch.

Should the watch slow or stop completely, replace the battery with one CR-2025 model battery. Due to the sensitive nature of the watch's electronics, do not attempt to open the watch's casing. This should only be attempted by a skilled watch repair technician.
