I've never experienced the date change changing. But its an easy fix. When the date does flip over, just reset the hands.

Sounds like your hands aren't properly aligned. Set to the watch until it's close as you can get it to when the date flips, then stop it. Remove the hands, and then reset them at the 12 o'clock position.

Voila, the date changes at 12.

Did it change correctly when you first had it or did it gradually come to that position (flip at 3)?

When i first got it, it changed normally at 12, and the date started to flip at 11pm. But last night i noticed that it wasnt flipping, so i adjusted the time and it flipped at 3.

There are supernatural reasons for that happening, you may want to consult a priest- just sayin'........
