Default Comus/Icom Global World Clock

I'm looking for instructions how to set the time and zone for this. I have fiddled around with the front panel buttons and can set the alarm, but can't crack how to set the time and zone etc.

It is branded Comus Global Clock Mini GC-4, and I believe the unit was sold under other brands such as Union Electrics and Icom GC-4. They came with printed instructions, but for the life of me I can't locate any online.

Some models I've found have instructions on a label underneath, but these don't tie in with the buttons on my front panel.

A copy of the manual or instructions would be appreciated

Outstanding - Thanks for this, Steven.

Date and time all set and working now.

I spent some hours this morning googling, looking at images for sites and different model numbers hoping to find a manual but no success.

Well done

My pleasure Damien. I've noticed that some conscientious online sellers include photographs of everything, presumably to get top dollar from collectors of 'must-have old thing in original packaging'. This can be great for those interested in seeing the packaging, instructions and so on.
