When does your rolex click over?
My 2006 Sub would flip the date over at exactly 12:00am. My new DJ2 takes approximately 3 minutes.

X2 Eddie and there must be now hundreds of post on TRF about the same subject.Some change before some a little bit after midnight its because they are mechanical watches and not electronic.But like you Eddie I need my beauty sleep and as long as it changes by next morning that will do for me.

Mine all change before I get up in the morning. The only time I might notice is when it has stopped because I have a few and I have to reset one.

I checked mine out a couple of times and it changes a few minutes after midnight. I can't remember and honestly it's not really a matter of concern.
The important thing, in my opinion, anyway, is that the date flips instantaneously, instead of taking several hours to do so. That's cool.

new deep sea- 00:04.
It's a minor nit, but since watches are precision-- I've got watches at far less cost that go it precisely at midnight. |

The GMT is seconds after it strikes midnight. The SD is close to a minute out.

My new 7021 Tudor starts a slow migration at about 1052pm. And clicks over by about midnight. I guess the answer is NEVER AT MIDNIGHT! I still love all my inaccurate rolexes and Tudors. Harry
