Talking Watches For The Blind

I'm trying to set the time on a talking watch for the blind, I can only seem to set the time for the alarm? Anyone know how to set the time on one?! Can't turn the alarm off either it goes of every midnight, no-one can figure out how to stop it!

The best advise i can offer you is to to check in the electronics mart then if that fails contact the manufacture...

This video points out Important things to consider when selecting talking watches for visually impaired or blind people in your life.

I'm looking for info on the song that plays during the early part of the movie when the cute girl is in the elevator talking about watching blind date. Help!

all the songs from the film are listed here:

speaker on the face of the watch

I am not blind but I use tools that blind people do, if they are available and not scarce which i have never come across. I have a learning disability , I can read pretty good but I like to have large print text because it doesn't look crowded and it's easier to process. I check out audio books from the library as well as the book because I am an audio visual learner.
with my learning disability , certain life skills have been delayed - tying my shoes , math , reading , buttoning shirts , and a few other things. It's kind of funny that I have difficultly telling time. Other people don't think it's funny when I read the time as being one hour early or one hour ahead and they say - Oh crap ! i am late ! then I say " you look at it". We have become so lazy with digital watches and clocks but I would like to learn to tell time on an analog clock. I have a friend who is nearly blind that has a watch that talks but the numbers are in braille. I know how to read braille ( I am a very curious person and I have a friend who used to work at a blind school and she had to learn braille - at the time a didn't have much of a life
) a little bit but I am not blind so why do I need to learn. I only know letters : A-F and that's by sight and with a key. so that doesn't count for much.
So getting to the point ; Is there such thing as a talking watch?

Yes, Radio shack will most likely have one, I've seen them there before and if I remember correctly they were only around $20.

When you watch a movie, you can hear a man talking over the movements, actions, scenery etc.

I think its for blind people so that they get a better idea of whats happening when noonein them ovie is talking but it ruins the film!

Anyone know what this is called and how to remove the setting.
Tried audio settings, but its been of no help!

Yea you have commentary on. On the main menu of the movie go into features and disable commentary there should be some options on commentary and just click no or off.

Whether its films or TV shows, a narrator speaks out to help viewers with whats happening eg
'now he walks towards the door' etc etc

Its spoiling the viewing with endless narration as if blind people are watching Anyone know what I am talking about?
I have just been in contact with Virgin. Theman from India says its the broadcasters who is doing this. One cannot do anything about the Audio Description. Is this correct?

yeh its called audio discription, go to your cable box or whatever you have got, and you can turn it off.
