Dumb date question
I have a dumb question. On my Submariner Date 116610, the date obviously read 31 today. If after noontime, I advance the date to the 1st, will it be sync and flip to the 2nd at midnight or will it be off by 12 hours?
I just stopped the movement and advanced the hands to flip the Date and set the correct time because I wasn’t sure, but it would be more convenient to just flip the date over if that will keep the am/pm in sync. Thanks Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

If you just flip the date it will be in sync.

You can change your quick-set date at any time you want, it will never get out-of-sync unless you physically move the hands.

Question :
So on march 1st the watch should display 29th. Should i manually set up the date on 1st or will the watch indicate 1st automatically? Same for other months 31, 30, 31, etc. |

Or if you're superprepared like a top Boy Scout, advance date to day before the night before... as long as you're not too close to the witching hour |
