Day Date Date wheel moves up and down

So my President 18238 date when you move your wrist down the date wheel slightly moves up. When you bring your wrist level it moves back into place. Just came back from service. Day and Date changes perfect at midnight. Anyway ever see or hear of this? Thanks. Posting a before and after of moving the wrist. It goes off center to centered. Strange!

It’s simply rotating rather than moving up and down. That would suggest the spring device to hold it in place once the date has changed isn’t doing its job properly. I would go back to whoever serviced it and get them to take a look at it.
