Alarm

The multi-function alarm lets you specify the hour,
minutes, month, and day for the alarm (page E-10). You
can set up the alarm so it sounds once when the alarm
time is reached, or for a snooze alarm that repeats up to
seven times, every five minutes.
You can also turn on an Hourly Time Signal that causes
the watch to beep twice every hour on the hour.

Pressing

alarm screen (Alarm time displayed) and the Hourly
Time Signal screen (

An alarm setting (and an Hourly Time Signal setting) is
available in the Alarm Mode, which you enter by
pressing
