If the date change is working normally, I suspect the watch is fine. Usually what happens is that it causes the date change to move from midnight to several mins before or after. If this is the case, no big deal, just have it reset at the next service. If the date change is not working at all or resetting at wierd times, like mid afternoon or morning I might have it looked at. Personally, one of my Omegas date setting occurs about 20 mins to midnight. Since im rarely up to notice it, I could care less as long as it changes over.
