Hey TRF,
So I've only had my Bluesy for about a week or so and the date always seems to change at 12:00 p.m. I have tried changing the date back right after 12 p.m. and 12 a.m. to see if it required like a 24hr cycle or something and it would still change at 12 p.m. regardless. Is there a way to like zero it our so itll change at 12 a.m. instead. Im sure there an obvious answer, any help would be much appreciated.

yes.

advance the hour hand 12 hours, set the date correctly, and that should do it.

you have the watch set 12 hours off.

Just unscrew the crown and manually move the hands 12 hours forward.

It's really very simple. When you go past the 12 o'clock time for the first time, make sure the date DOES NOT change.....which means you've just past MID-DAY. Set the time to your current time, say it's 2 pm in the afternoon.

Then, rest assured, the watch will flick over the date at MIDNIGHT.

TR: don't believe these guys! It's bad to take advice from JJ because Bo and Jocke CREATED him in their laboratory somewhere up there in Scandinavia.
