Rolex 16750 date set question

Hello

Recently acquired a 16750 that had just come back from a RSC full service.

When changing the date by moving the hands forward, the date half changes at midnight,
Then fully clicks at 6am.

When using the quickset it clicks over fully

Is this a normal feature of the movement?

Thanks in advance

No this is not normal. It should change completely at once. The tension spring for the date wheel needs an adjustment or possibly something else is causing the wheel to stick and not fully engage properly when the date changes.

Springer is spot-on. Sounds like it needs to go back to RSC.
