Usually Don't Bother Setting the Dates
In Response To: Thanks to you Jeff ()

Even on my watches that have dates, I usually don't bother setting them. Sitting at my desk, I have the date on my computer and the screen of my desk-top phone, so no need to have it on the watch.

The Sinn does have a date, but I can't recall ever setting it.
