Don't worry about it.......just monitor a couple of times more and then check back with us.

Normally, the date change should be within 5 minutes of the witchin' hour.

Mine changes at 4 minutes past midnight. For its first month it changed at 3 minutes past for the couple of times I checked. I say if around +- midnite its ok. If it was like an hour before or a couple of hours after I'd worry. Just IMHO.
