Good afternoon,

I am quite sure there are directions for synchronizing the spoken time and 
the hands.  I will ask my wife to look for the directions and I don't mind 
typing them out for this list.

Hi Tom;
I too have the same problem.  I didn't have any idea there was a problem
until someone mentioned that my watch had the wrong time.  Being shy and
reserved I firmly told them it was fine and hit the talk button.  The speech
does indeed say the right time but the hands are at least six hours off.
Richard

    Hi, all.

Maxiaids sells the Reizen atomic talking watch.  ... I have one, and it
keeps great time digitally and verbally.

However, somewhere along the way, the visual display hands got out of sync,
so they now don't agree with the actual spoken time, and the folks from
Maxiaids don't know what to tell me to do to get it fixed.

I sent the watch back to them on warranty once, and they got it synchronized
again for a while, but now the visual hands are off again.

Don't understand it, and they can't seem to tell me how to fix it here.

Very strange, so now I just tell people around me to ignore the visual
display hands.
