Kenneth Cole RK5034 REACTION - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

I had 2 problems:
1- my watch was stuck in 24hr time format.
2- I didn't know how to turn the alarm off.

Solution for issue #1 (switching between 24hr and 12hr time displays):
You press both the upper right and lower left button at the same time's

Solution for issue #2 (turning alarm on/off):
You press both the upper right and lower right button at the same time, twice.

Probably not, fashion watches are very difficult to get case parts for.

You can get instructions by going to http://www.genevawatchgroup.com/ and clicking on "Customer Service". Scroll down to your watch type and model and click on it to obtain the manual.

I just set the time on mine with these instructions 1) With the watch in the regular time display mode (doesn't matter if 12 hour or military time), depress and hold the lower left hand button (mode button). After a few seconds the watch appears to shift to alarm mode and it is blinking. This puts you into the mode for adjusting the alarm.

2) If you want to adjust time, date, etc rather than alarm time, after you have done step one, simply press that same lower left button again, and then it will put you into the time mode, but this time the time mode is blinking and you can adjust the various components (seconds, minutes, hours) then you can use the upper right hand button to navigate thru seconds, minutes and hours. Then you can change the time with the lower right hand button you can only change the time forward. I hope this helps !!!

You do not need exactly the Kenneth Cole watch band. Measure the distance between watch case lugs - this will be the width of your new band. Go to any jewellers shop you like, ask them to show all watch bands of this size and choose whichever you like. Ask them to fit it as well if you do not fancy to do it yourself.
In case if you have a buckle with KC logo and want to keep it, then take it with you and ask to refit the buckle as well.

Rate me, please.

I have no idea how the things work in India, but any Kenneth Cole dealer shop must be able to sort your problem ( at least it is worldwide experience ). So, visit your nearest Kenneth Cole store and ask for help.

It is real. Manufacture in China is cheap and many of brand names are manufactured there.
Japanese movt is right and real as well as these are mass produced for many different brand names.

I just dug my watch out after not wearing for a few years and had the same problem. There is an easy way to adust this watch's time and alarm, basically one way to enter both.

1) With the watch in the regular time display mode (doesn't matter if 12 hour or military time), depress and hold the lower left hand button (mode button). After a few seconds the watch appears to shift to alarm mode and it is blinking. This puts you into the mode for adjusting the alarm.

2) If you want to adjust time, date, etc rather than alarm time, after you have done step one, simply press that same lower left button again, and then it will put you into the time mode, but this time the time mode is blinking and you can adjust the various components (seconds, minutes, hours). You can only move minutes, hours, etc forward, no way to move backward. You will start off with the second display blinking, probably skip that unless you need to adjust seconds. Depress the upper right button to shift to the next option (minutes) and you will see the minute display blinking. Adjust the minutes by depressing the lower right button. When finished depress upper right button to move to next option (hours) depress the lower right button to move the minutes/hours/month/date forward as necessary, when you finish just press the lower left button again and it pulls you out of adjust mode and you are back in regular time viewing.

I had to post this because I've had this problem in the past and it killed me. Its kind of intuititve after you get into the adjusting mode by pressing the lower left button- remember, initially it will put you into adjust alarm mode, but press again and you will get into adjust time mode.

Not looking hopeful! https://www.google.com/search?q=2+tone+26mm+band+for+a+Kenneth+Cole+kc1267+watch Out of Stock, discontinued. Time for a change, but the watch lugs are unusual. I only see one that will fit and that is discontinued as well. https://www.totalwatchrepair.com/collections/kenneth-cole-watch-bands/products/genuine-kenneth-cole-black-alligator-grain-square-tip-26mm-watch-strap-2?variant=18091361795# .

It sounds like you are talking about a watch, but Kenneth Cole don't appear to sell watches. If you bought it from eBay or Amazon, or a market, it is a Chinese watch with their name on it. https://www.kennethcole.com/search?page=1&q=gp21880 or here https://www.google.com/search?q=kenneth+cole+reaction+gp21880 ..

Good advice here that I wrote a while back https://www.fixya.com/support/r27181038-changing_watch_batteries ..

Question edited for clarity. The easiest way is to visit your local jeweller. The keep bands in stock and all the screws and professional grade screwdrivers. https://www.google.com/search?q=Kenneth+Cole+Men%27s+KC1267+Reaction+Watch+replacement+band ..

They all set pretty much the same. Here is the general walk through from the Cole site: Press the lower left button on the Kenneth Cole digital watches to cycle through the various modes. Press it three times to get into time mode (the face should be blinking). Press the upper right-hand button to change the seconds. Press the lower right-hand button to select the minutes.
