Hi Guys,

Just noticed that the date change on my Bentley 6.75 Speed is acting suspiciously. Can you take a look at my video below and give me your expert opinion :oops: . Thanks

I dont remember my date change ever starting that early (20mins) before midnight. I always thought it just turned over to the next day immediately at midnight.

in this video, the date change seems to start at around 11:40. and then it clicked over to the next date about a minute too early

so i decided to check out the movement with the dial pushed in to see what it would do in real time. in real time, the date will not change over completely at midnight. look like its half way between the previous and current day. a few minutes past midnight, the date finally changed over completely.

Thoughts guys?

I'm not aware of any Beitlings which click over precisely at midnight without some transition period either before or after the hour. I still don't think you have any problems at all and it's all perfectly normal.

:yeahthat

Cockpit / B01 have the instand date change, but I see nothing at all wrong with it - and people with B13 powered pieces are probably envious of such a short date change window.
