FAQs
What is the purpose of the GMT hand?
The GMT hand allows you to track a second time zone independently of the main hour and minute hands. This is useful for travelers or individuals who need to monitor times in different parts of the world.
How do I set the GMT hand on the Timex Continental Wt Sn63?
The method for setting the GMT hand can vary slightly by model. Typically, you would pull the crown out to a specific position (often the first or second) and turn it in a particular direction to advance the GMT hand. Please consult the official Timex manual for your specific watch model for precise instructions.
What is the case size of this watch?
The case size of the Timex Continental Wt Sn63 is 39mm in diameter.
Is this watch suitable for swimming or diving?
The product description does not specify a high level of water resistance suitable for swimming or diving. It is generally recommended to avoid submerging the watch unless its water resistance rating is clearly indicated and suitable for such activities.
What material is the strap made of?
The strap is made of a perforated synthetic rubber, designed for comfort and a casual aesthetic.
Does the watch have luminous hands?
Yes, the watch features luminant hands and markers, which enhance visibility in low-light conditions after being exposed to light.
What is the dial color and finish?
The dial is black with a radial texture, offering a subtle visual appeal.
Troubleshooting
Watch is not keeping accurate time.
Ensure the crown is fully pushed in. If the watch uses a battery, it may need replacement. For mechanical watches, ensure it has been wound sufficiently or is exposed to regular movement.
GMT hand is not showing the correct second time zone.
Refer to the product manual for the specific procedure to set the GMT hand independently. Ensure you are following the correct sequence of crown adjustments.
Difficulty reading the dial in low light.
Ensure the luminant material on the hands and markers has been exposed to light. Recharging by exposure to light should improve visibility. The luminant material has a limited glow duration.
Strap feels uncomfortable or causes irritation.
The perforated synthetic rubber strap is designed for breathability. Ensure it is clean. If discomfort persists, consider purchasing an alternative compatible strap.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Setting the time and date on the Timex Continental Wt Sn63 is a standard process. Pull the crown out to the first position to adjust the date and to the second position to set the local time. To set the GMT hand independently, you may need to consult the specific manual for your model, as it typically involves a separate setting mechanism.
Compatibility: This watch is designed as a standalone timepiece and does not interface with other electronic devices. Its compatibility is purely in its function as a watch and GMT indicator.
Care: To maintain the appearance and function of your watch:
- Cleaning: Wipe the case and strap with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, especially on the dial and crystal.
- Strap Maintenance: For the synthetic rubber strap, rinse with water if exposed to salt water or chlorine, and allow it to air dry.
- Water Resistance: While the watch has a degree of water resistance, avoid prolonged submersion or high-pressure water activities unless specifically stated for your model.
- Storage: Store the watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
