So I just spent a considerable amount of time changing dates. This is the day you value a Daytona the most. As I keep all my watches on programmed winders I change them all at once. Now all good until Dec 1.

Talk about first world problems!

Me too...I had to rotate the GMT hand 24 clicks to get to the 1st and boy are my thumb and forefinger sore!

Wow I think we've officially run out of things to talk about on this forum.

No problem till March 1st here.

samson66 · 2 October 2019, 05:48 AM

That just means I officially have to let all my date watches stop running for one day :)

kieselguhr · 2 October 2019, 06:56 AM

Nowadays it’s not such an issue as most movements have quick set date. I hate changing date on the 1601.

schoolboy · 2 October 2019, 07:03 AM

I actually enjoy setting the date and time on my watch

Pretty peaceful interaction

But I only have one watch

So if you have 20 watches, I can see how that might get out of hand

But I had 20 watches I would probably just pay someone to set them for me

brandrea · 2 October 2019, 07:14 AM

Thank god for Travis ... he had to remind me this morning

How does that help?
On Oct 2nd you’d be three days off on the date display.

Now if you hacked them for a month you could restart them on Halloween...

Didn't even notice the date on my watch until this post, lol. Updating now

watchmework · 2 October 2019, 09:18 AM

Maybe I'm the only one but I actually enjoy popping out the crown and rotating the hour hand...heck I really enjoy interacting with my watch in general so any excuse to do so is a good time.

This.

Phooi · 2 October 2019, 10:06 AM

One of the reasons why I wanted a SkyD — annual calendar complication is awesome!

It was a bit nerdy but watched the watch flip from 9/30 to 10/1.

Gary Busey · 2 October 2019, 10:07 AM

Dates are useless.

FTX I · 2 October 2019, 10:24 AM

I'm rotating two No-date Subs since last week so I didn't notice.

Boothroyd · 2 October 2019, 10:26 AM

I'll admit I forgot to change it today. Thanks for the reminder! Quick set to the rescue.

chloebear · 2 October 2019, 11:35 AM

GMT Master II and Explorer II are on the correct day now. Didn't have to touch the Milgauss. Thanks for the heads up. I wore the Pepsi on 31 all day today.

Here here! My sentiments as well. I've only had my DJ 1603 for a little over a month, so I also enjoy bonding with my watch. My wife says I'm obsessed, but it's a ROLEX, I'm entitled
