RE: Seiko 8F33 FACTORY SETTINGS So far online all of the setting instruction I could find were for an end user and not complete and very basic. With some experimenting I came up with the following. No Guarantees! I did get it running and set. Notice: along the perimeter of the battery there are contacts: AC (to stop it from jumping 5 seconds at a time) 1 with arrow 2 with arrow Y M Set time to midnight stop second hand at 60 by pulling out crown to second position. I had to use a mirror to see the dial while trying this. the 1 and 2: set what is the 1st by touching 1 or 2 to battery and advancing or reversing date Touch Y to battery and notice that the date will move from 1, 2, 3, 4 for each connection; touch again and it moves back to 1. This sets the year after leap year. For 2014 stop the calendar at 2 by touching twice (leap year is 2010 plus 2 to 2014). Same for month. M Jan is 1, October is 10, etc. This is what I can remember so anyone can add to this for it is not likely complete but I hope it helps. dL
