I recently purchased the below pictured quartz Invicta 4094. It has a one-position, non-locking crown and three pushers -- one for the day, one for the day-of-week and a final pusher for the month (wh/ requires a pointed object to adjust). I have read my Invicta Instruction Manual multiple times and I cannot find any example that exactly matches this watch's configuration. How am I supposed to adjust the moon phase feature?

I believe you have to turn the crown(the time) hour by hour forward and you will notice the moon will move ...you have to match it up with www.fishsniffer.com/moonphase/november07.htmlso keep turning the crown to full moon, once you have the moon in the middle set date to the 24th (as it was a full moon on that date) set proper time and day for the 24th...and now turn crown advancing everything to todays values...sat dec first and whatever time it is .you will notice the moon is moving as you advance the time and in turn the day and date . I have the same watch in orange..it was my first moonphase

The good news is that it is a nice watch. The bad news, catbird, is that the only way to adjust the moonphase complication is by forwarding the hours hands. It is a pain but once you get it set, you won't have to really do it again until the battery dies. Visit this site to make sure your moon is properly phased. www.watchnetwork.com/moonphase/

I can not remember the exact times but you should have received in your instructions hours you should not be changing complications on a moon phase Invicta. Not actual hours but the hours you have you watch set too. If you can't find that I will go looking through my stuff and find it for you. Nice watch!!!!

Yes, I did see that. IIRC, it's 9:00 PM - 3:00 AM that you should not use the pusher adjusters.

Lets say you want to do this and it is in that window of time. Lets say it is 10PM. Change your time setting to before 9:00PM like say, 5:00PM. Use your pushers and get every thing else right, then change your watch back to the correct time. ;D
