The date does not change from the 31st to the 1st.

Hello! A question. Tonight, at 00:00, it went from 31 to 1 (data). The question is the following: Is it normal for the date not to change from 31 to 1 automatically? And must it be set manually? From the end of the month to the beginning of the month? I ask because my watch stayed at 31, while the date was 1.

I found something related to my situation.

You will run into a slight Rolex date change problem as the new month dawns. That’s because the months have different numbers of dates. Unlike the week that has seven fixed days, a month may last for 28,29, 30, or 31 days. You’ll need to manually adjust the date so that it’s back to “1” when the new months begins.

It should change to the next date.

29, 30, 31, 1, 2 etc.

You only need to move the date forward if the month has less than 31 days.

The watch does not know the difference between 30, 31 or 1. The wheel just goes around. If it changes dates normally on other days, it might just be in AM.?!

I thought about suggesting that but couldn’t type it.
