Correct me if im wrong. But dates clicking over doesnt really fault much does it?
If it clicks over much earlier or later than youd like, find that time where it clicks over, remove hands and set to 12:00am and ud have a perfect change right at midnight. Hand removing tools can be found easily for $20 range. |

It isn't as easy as described.. There is gear lash and movement in the gear train. You can try to put the hands on dozens of times and never get it in exactly the same place twice..

i'm great at taking things apart.. but back together with something so precise i don't trust myself with! if you say it's fine and that's the general feedback i've seen from my research then i will leave it!

That's a fact. I'm always happy if I get them within a minute or so.

Mine was up to 1 minute so I sent it to RSC and they regulated it and it now snaps over at exactly midnight and on average has gained 0.7 sec per day which is OK by me

Mine snaps over at 2mins past midnight. I spoke to RSC in Sydney and Melbourne and the spec is -1/+2 mins so all good.
