Does your watch date flip over exactly at midnight?

Sorry to thread jack but I figure I have an audience of all those paying attention to date changes so it’s the right people.

A Rolex boutique manager told me that with their modern movements there is no longer the worry about adjusting the date while the time is near midnight. I had never heard this before. Does anyone here know whether this claim is true or not?

Yes.
This is true for your typical modern Rolex movement with a Quick set date mechanism which has been around for many many years now.

True on all modern Rolex made in the 30 years no problem as they use cam slide date change system.
