Setting Timex watch

I was setting the time on my Timex Ironman T5G041, when the display "froze" while trying to set the minutes. It reads "SET TIME", with the top left button reading "DONE", bottom left "NEXT", lap button "+" and bottom right "-". Nothing changes regardless of the buttons I press. Is there some way to reset Timex watches?

Thanks,

Mick

I Don't know to set up of the TIMEX DIGITAL WR100M IRONMAN CLASSIC 100 THAT I JUST GOT/// HELP

A lot of watch manufacturers use the American style date layout of Month/Day/Year. Try this. Looking at the watch press and hold the bottom right SIDE button for 3 seconds. It should enter setting mode where the seconds display will flash. Press the Right FACE button once. It should switch to the Hour display flashing. Press the same button again to go to minutes and them again to go to the date display.
Repeated pressing of the top Right SIDE button changes the numbers upwards, (1,2,3,4), and the Left FACE button changes the numbers downwards, (4,3,2,1). Press the Bottom right SIDE button once to finish and go back to the normal display.

I don't know how to enable the Golf Scoring Mode.

This is out of memory so bare with me. Push and hold the "set" button as if you were going to set the time. Now continue to push the "mode" button that moves from hours, minutes, date, beep setting, alarm setting, etc. Eventually you will come to the Golf setting which will ask whether or not you want to display it. Select yes, push the "set" button again, scroll through, and voila.
