Date Change SMP 2531.80

I've had my SMP 2531.80 for almost two weeks now.It is gaining 8 seconds per day but otherwise is flawless.I've noticed on the forum the most frequently asked questions are in regards to accuracy and date change.Since I'm not thrilled by the accuracy of my watch so far, I decided to stay up and watch the date change to see if that too was far off.Well at 20 seconds after midnight I heard a small click and the date changed in an instant. This experiment has taught me two things.First,my watch may not be the most accurate watch out there but it many have the most accurate date change on the planet! Second,and most importantly,I'm planning to obsess less about this watch and enjoy what is probably the best watch for the money anywhere.I will continue to enjoy the best forum on the web for Omega enthusiasts and hope that all my fellow Omega owners enjoy there watches to the fullest.
