mcdevito75 here, If it was working before the battery change, you"ll have to double check your battery installation, also check that all button contacts are being made from the button itself to the movement, use a Qtip to clean all contacts as oil from your fingers could make a bad contact. also, if there is a seperate battery for the alarm as some watches have you may also have to replace that battery. Last but not least, your NEW battery could be weak right out of the package, who knows how long it was in the store or warehouse. Sorry for your troubles but welcome to the world of watches. One more thing, the alarm sounds from a speaker like device just under the back cover, double check everything for proper placement and go slow, don"t loose patience, take a break and return to your watch. Hope all works out.mcdevito75 here, If it was working before the battery change, you"ll have to double check your battery installation, also check that all button contacts are being made from the button itself to the movement, use a Qtip to clean all contacts as oil from your fingers could make a bad contact. also, if there is a seperate battery for the alarm as some watches have you may also have to replace that battery.

Mcdevito75 here, By pressing the MODE button until you get to the alarm function and turn it to on or, set an alarm time for the alarm to go off.
