Every time it feels like doing it. That means nearly every day, but only while I'm asleep.

My Explorer doesn't have a date....it's trapped in the same day every single day.

I feel sorry for those that are "dateless" on a Friday night. Wow, I apologize in advance for the corny joke. I just couldn't resist!

I checked mine the other night after I had to roll them ahead for May. The Sub and the DJ both must have changed right at midnight or just after within the minute. Not bad!

My SD used to change over at about 4 minutes after midnight. I just have it back from service and when I am setting it by hand it turns exactly at midnight. I have been too tired at night to catch it changing.

My advice to you is stop worrying about your watch its all perfectly normal for any mechanical watch.Same for the minute hands etc just wear and enjoy your watch for the next few decades in good health thats the more important.
