Quickset Question
When adjusting quickset, is there a way to know if it's AM or PM?
Silly question I suppose, but if I do not use my watch for a while and then set it, I always set the date one day behind, then turn the hour hand forward until it changes. I then know it starts in the AM and I keep turning until it reaches the correct time (AM or PM). If I just set the date, I am not sure if it's AM or PM, and the date may change at noon... |

Setting a day in advance, then using the time part to adujust the date is the same for me. I also set the date in the morning, but I only had mine for about a week or two.

I usually wind the hands until they have just passed the 12 o'clock position. If the date changes I know it's am, if it doesn't, I know it's pm. I then set the time to am or pm depending on the results and then the date.
BTW, welcome to TRF Greg.
