hello everybody... got questions for you guys...

hello everybody... last year I bought my first Rolex.. a Datejust Perpetual... I'm wearing it every now and then, mostly on weekends.. I noticed that date does not change at midnight sharp, but some 10 or 20 minutes past... what's wrong? might it be that wearing it not so often it does not load enough energy to ensure a midnight change? thanks to everyone in advance... Roberto

Mucho gusto [hope I have that right], Roberto. No worries on the date change. Some change before midnight, some change after. It's part of your DJ's personality.

Thanks for the correction.
Each watch has it's own charcteristics. Date change, setting the time, time keeping performance, etc. Learning how your watch performs creates it's unique personality.
Cio [did I get that right],
