Post subject:  I have 4 questions about the date change
I wonder if there is any Chronomat evo that the date is exactly changed at midnight or is it somehow possible to make the ling to change dates exactly at midnight so at 00.00 its already changed to the new date? and so it will do that forever? :)

Mine begins to change the date
at midnight and 00.05 its changed, will it always be like that or will it gain some minutes every year or so before it begins to change the date ?

and if i want to use or wind the quick date should i stop the watch or can i just change the date without stopping the movement of the hands

sorry for my poor English spelling :mrgreen:

The Valjoux 7750 that the movement is based on takes a while to change - it will always take a while and it will always change at the same time.

You don't need to stop the watch to use the quick set date, but......

Never use the quick set date or wind time backwards between 8pm and 3am - you can easily damage the movement.

You can wind the watch at any point, but if you wear it every day then you shouldn't need to.

Thx alot Roffensian :) i did actually damage the movement a cuople of months after i bought my ling from my Ad, i think i damaged it when the watch had stoppt a couple of times between 8 and 3 and i winded it ,i was young and dumb (last year) :mrgreen:
so i took it to my Ad and they send it to busa and they restored it for me and after 2 weeks i got it back .. it had begun to change the date at 4 am ,and i couldnt stand it, it broke my heart almost as i broke the lings :mrgreen:
every since then i use it every day
