I use foxit reader with ghostlite as my pdf reader, this has a function (using cloud) to translate smaller parts of the page (pdf) while you are reading it. Here is a part of a page for example; Cette montre, en vue d'améliorer l'opérabilité, équipé d'un commutateur rotatif fonction (rotation de la lunette), "Auto" peut être de deux types de mesure de la température du "manuel", est Succoth appeler les données de mesure respectives par fonction de rappel Thermo vous pouvez.

hello :)

Thank You 7s26b

-- I am using for the translation " Google traductor " in French and Ingl.
-- It si not to bad . I nearly finish to put everything together even with
the pictures ( diagram ) .

-- Now I have found a other problema with this Watch ...
-- The Day and the Date is lull automatic from 1993--2042

Page 1 and 4 .
º Même la correction de saut de l'année "de calendrier entièrement automatique" est inutiles (1993-2042 ans). - Leap year "full auto calendar" also fixes unnecessary in the (1993-2042 years) is equipped with function
Depuis le calendrier est programmé l'année, le mois et le jour de 1993-2042, pendant ce temps, la lune de grandes et petites ,et vous ne devez pas modifier d'une année bissextile.Since the calendar is programmed the year, month, and day of 1993-2042, during which time, of large and small and the moon, you do not need to modify any leap year.

But on my watch the Day and the Date don´t match .
Ex: Today -- : TH 4-1 ( Thursday April 1 ) and when I change : WE 3-31 ( Wednesday March 31 )
-- That has change from 29 Feb. ( Année bissextile)
--¿¿ So I don´t know how to fix that ?? :confused:

:)

OK, maybe somebody changed the battery, and didn't do an AC reset? You can do a full reset by pressing all four buttons A B C D at the same time for 2-3 seconds.

Seiko S820-6000 Ski-Thermo

Hello :)

¿¿ I have sent 1 private message to qship “for a scan of the booklet of the Seiko S820-6000 Ski-thermo . but no reply ? .
How to be sure He has receive the message . Maybe I'm missing something ??

Any advice :confused:

 
#27 · (Edited)
Sorry for the late reply - I don't get on here too often. I have only seen the Japanese tech manual as mentioned earlier. To confirm, I believe there is no difference between the s820 and the s821 except the a821 is JDM only.

In regards to changing the day/date
1. rotate dial to time
2. Hold top right button down till seconds flash
3, Move through time mode by pushing top left button till what you want to change is flashing (year is up in the top window) You must set all 3 - date, month and year and then then the day will be correct.
4. Push lower left button to set each flashing digit
5. Push top right again to get out of time setting mode.

Hope this helps.
