When Does the First Film "The Time Machine" (1960) Take Place?

"The Time Machine" is a science fiction film written by David Duncan [adapting "The Time Machine" (1895) by H.G. Wells] that released August 17th, 1960. So when is "The Time Machine" set? 


It takes place in the year: 

802701 AD 

We know this because  the dials on the Time Machine read "OCT" and "12" and "802701" just after H. George Wells makes his first big jump into the future. So it's October of 802701 AD. 

Additionally, Wells' dials read "APR" and "1900" when he begins to head into the future. So it is presumably April of 1900 AD during the prologue and epilogue of the movie. 

Also, the Time Traveler character makes three more much shorter jumps only about a quarter into the story: 

-After the first of these, the time machine dials tell us it is "SEP" "13" "1917". So it's September of 1917 AD. 

-After the second trip, his famous machine reads "JUN" "19" "1940" so we know its July of 1940 AD during this part. 

-After the third trip, it displays: "AUG" and "18" and "1966" so we know it is August of 1966 AD.
