So out with the manuel. Find my loupe, because my eyes can't see the small detail on the dial. Determine if I'm out of the danger zone. Find my pusher, start pushing. Go PAST the place I'm suppose to be on the date. Push 31 more times. After 30-40 minutes with my wife screaming at me we leave for dinner 20 minutes late. Then I have to explain to our friends that I wasn't able to set my watch correctly. They think, what kind of idiot can't set a watch? I finally go back home only to find out the ONLY maker I have right is the DAY. Both the Month and Date are not correct. GOD only knows if the moonphase is right, but then does anybody really care? Take it off after 3 hours and put it back in the safe. REPEAT 2 months later (The month will be corrrect by then).
Including the late dinner appointment and my wife yelling at me.

However I am getting much better at it and as noted above, practice does make perfect...
