Time setting question

[Gearjockey]

3135 movement (sub,datejust, etc).

Scenario: Time is past midnight and date has advanced to current date.

Now I’m traveling east, can I set time counter-clockwise into previous date or do I need to quick-set the date?

Last night I tried setting counter-clockwise from Oct 3 to Oct 2 before I departed on a flight. Date wouldn’t reverse and then when time passed midnight again, it wouldn’t advance.

Is this damaging to the watch?

Thanks

the date doesn't reverse (like on GMT). Won't forward again until another 24 hour cycle. Need to use quickset date
