Bought this watch from a local shop in St. Louis this past year for my wife. The other night she told me the date was in the middle and she couldnt see it very well. When I looked at it this is what I saw. I have never seen this before on anything I have owned, so im looking for an info on this. Is this a problem, does it need service..etc. Please chime in. Thank you!

It's hard to tell from the picture, it's too blurry. When in doubt send it out. RSC is the way to go. Do you know the age of the watch or the service history?

Maybe let them service it. Date wheel looks like it's not turning fully. I'm no expert though.

Thanks guys, It is blurry but the issue is at 11:30pm the date wheel is already half turned. Not a major deal but just never seen it before, so I was looking for some help. The place I bought it from gives a warranty with the watch so if it was something that was wrong I was going to take it to them.

Try moving the hands forward 24 - 48 hours and see if it fixes itself.

Have you tried using the quickset and moving it forward 31 days? It may correct it.

Have Rsc check it out

Probably a lack of lubrication on the date indicator.
Yes, it needs to be serviced.

The good thing is that you will have a brand new looking watch after the service
