How to Adjust the Day and Date on an Analog Watch

In this short video I demonstrate how to adjust the day and date on your analog watch. Word of warning, do not adjust the day or date while your watch is between 9PM and 3AM, at this time the day/date is likely already in the process of moving over, so either advance the time forward to ensure the day and date change over is complete, or wait until the next day to make the adjustment.

@bryanlee6065 Жыл бұрын

No he said don't make adjustment between 9pm and 3am. At 1:44 he knew he was at about 10am, not 10pm, because the date hadn't changed at 12

Great video! Unfortunately, the gear that sets the day of the week is broken on my watch, so I'll be stuck on Spanish until I get it fixed.

@johnwebster5983 3 жыл бұрын

Yes, I understand that warning. I tend to do it after I wake up, just before breakfast. However, what happens if you do it in the afternoon? Will that put the watch out of sync? Or do all analog watches keep track of 24 hour cycles? Of course, if you have a battery changed in the afternoon, a lazy fitter might set it wrong, so it's worth checking the date the next day and winding it past midnight to get the date change function working properly.

Hi There, sorry im trouble to understand "between".. does it mean between hours 9,10,11,12,1,2,3 only or it literally mean between 9:00~9:59 and 3:00~3:59?. cheers!

@luketexas 4 ай бұрын

so if you move it while its 9pm -3am with the first click it can damage it but moving it forward with second click you can not damage it?

Does the "don't change the date if the time is set 9p-3a" go for all watches? I know I wont change the date on my watch if the time is between 9p-3a just to be safe but I am curious. I like to see a video explaining the water proof, how deep rating thing of watches. Not a deep dive or anything. Just an over view would be cool. Thanks so much. BTW my favorite time of the day is 6:30! HANDS DOWN!

@seriosertyp8145 3 жыл бұрын

Does not apply to modern Rolexes. But goes for any watch with movements by ETA. So almost all modern mechanical watches. Breitling for examples uses ETA Valjoux in his watches and fine tunes it in-house for extreme accuracy. I changed the date on a Mido with ETA more than once between 9pm and 3am out of carelessness. I noticed some resistance/grinding of the engaged gear train for date change. Probably something that only can be done around 50 times before the gears are worn down.

That is not working on my watch. The number for the day kind moves a little but that is it.

@ariajain7393 Жыл бұрын

How exactly will you damage your watch? I clearly dont see how thats even possible so if you please could explain. thanks

@Watchcastage Жыл бұрын

The day and date mechanisms engage a few hours before midnight and are still in motion a few hours after midnight. If you make manual adjustments while these gears are activated it can snap one of the gears. Apparently a lot of modern watches have failsafes. Here's a great blog post about it: www.watchuseek.com/threads/date-change-damage-questions.5181353/

My day changes at 1 am and date changes at12 am why?

@ScottStevens1 8 ай бұрын

When you adjusted the day annd date it was set at 2:30...definitely not between 3 and 9 per your warning? Why?

@Watchcastage 8 ай бұрын

When I manually adjusted the day and the date, the time on the watch was between 2 o’clock and 3:00 PM. The day and date mechanism are not engaged at that time. You should be avoiding changing the day and the date manually when the time is between 9:00 PM and 3:00 AM.at 2:30 in the video, I was not manually adjusting the day and the date, I was progressing the time forward, which was allowing the mechanism to engage as it would. If we’re going by in real time, I was simply moving the hand forward much quicker than real time.

@zaynn8382 6 ай бұрын

why you rotate again once after you pass 3 00?

@zaynn8382 6 ай бұрын

and why you change the day and date when you are under 2?

@RaisinAmy Жыл бұрын

Thanks but am I seeing things or did you actually change the date/time while between 9 and 6?

@Watchcastage Жыл бұрын

You are able to change between 9 AM and 3 PM. You don’t want to change the day or date between 9 PM and 3 AM because that’s when the date change mechanism is engaged.

On my Lorus quartz the clockwise/anticlockwise adjustment for Day and Date are flipped. lmao Or something like that, counterclockwise adjusted the date and clockwise the day.

/how these watches detect its 28 day month? and tomorrow is 1st?

@Watchcastage 2 жыл бұрын

Watches at this price are unable to determine that, so on 28 day months or 30 day months, you will need to adjust the date. If you wanted an automatic watch that detected the 28 and 30 day months you would be looking at Annual Calendar watches. If you wanted a watch that detects 28 day and 30 day months as well as leap years, that would be a perpetual calendar watch. You can get these features on digital watches or radio controlled watches at a relatively affordable level. However, if you want this in the mechanical realm, you’ll be looking at very expensive and complicated watches.

When you actually were adjusting the day and date you did so at 2:30...definitely nor between 3 and 9. Strange.
