You can follow these steps:

Start by accessing the main menu on your Fenix 5 watch. To do this, press the "Start/Stop" button located on the upper right side of the watch face.
Once you are in the main menu, use the "Up" and "Down" buttons located on the left side of the watch face to navigate and select the "Settings" option. Press the "Start/Stop" button to confirm your selection.
In the Settings menu, scroll down and select the "System" option. Press the "Start/Stop" button to enter the System settings.
Within the System settings, scroll down and select the "Time" option. Press the "Start/Stop" button to access the time settings.
In the Time settings, you will have the option to adjust various parameters such as the time format (12-hour or 24-hour), the time zone, and the date.
To change the time, select the "Set Time" option and press the "Start/Stop" button. You will now be able to adjust the hours, minutes, and seconds individually using the "Up" and "Down" buttons.
Once you have set the desired time, press the "Start/Stop" button to confirm the changes.
After setting the time, you can also adjust the date by selecting the "Set Date" option in the Time settings and following the same process.
Finally, exit the settings menu by pressing the "Back" button or by pressing and holding the "Light" button on the upper left side of the watch face.

That's it! You have successfully changed the time on your Garmin Fenix 5 watch. The new time should now be displayed on the watch face.
