Garmin watch incorrect time

"Hi,

Have you checked that the GPS setting is activated? When the time setting is on Automatic the watch derives the time and date based on the GPS position signals it receives from the satellites.

If you have got the GPS enabled and the time is wrong try the suggestions in the troubleshooting section on p.14 of the user guide regarding Improving GPS Satellite Reception and Acquiring Satellite Signals and see if this solves your problem.

Here is a link to the User Guide.

If that doesn't work check to see if there are any software updates available or perhaps you can try reinstalling the software version that you are using now, in case it has been corrupted.

Here is a link describing the procedure. See the Note regarding using Garmin Express

I got the same problem today, watch showed wrong day and time. I went out and turned on the activity mode, waited till GPS is available (green bar). Afterwards, the time finally shows correctly, only the steps is not synced, it was reset and shows a different value as garmin connect.

"had this issue. Went in and manually set the time usiing the process above.

Then I turned on GPS and set my location for one of my apps.

Then I turned the auto Time format back on. And it seems to be corrected now."

"i not sure i found the fix. This happened to me when i downloaded and used other watch face (ActiFace by Petr.koula)

1) connect my garmin forerunner 735 with USB to my laptop.

2) Manage App

3) choose the watch face, it should have a setting button

4) Edit the timezone to the correct time zone"

I had the same problem when the watch battery died. This was my solution- not sure it's the most efficient. First, go to settings. Second, select sensors and finally select compass. The watch will then instruct you to calibrate (move watch in a figure 8). Good luck

this morning the clock on my forerunner 230 was 17 minutes ahead but also showing the day before's activity level. Even when I changed the settings for the clock to a manually set time, it was stuck on the day before's activity as current day activity. For me the solution was a quick drive in the car, where I timed the drive as a run, a new GPS signal was acquired and the clock set correctly and the activity level from the day before was gone, so device advanced to "today"
