hi guys.. looking for specific question which doesn't seems to have a answer.

i wash checking out AP diver on youtube... i realised that their wheel date changes at the dote when it hits 12am.
Noted that my watches with A2836, A2824, A7750, seagull ST2555 movements doesn't do so...
the date wheel starts to shift somewhere around 11pm... (my seagull ST2555 started shifting around 10.30pm) and by 12am to 12.15am, the date-change will be fully completed.

Can i assume that it is normal?
Can these asian and seagull be modded to change sharply at 12am as per gen watch?


kindly advise.

This is normal,and no u cant force it to flick over the date like some. But ultimately u can adjust to make it perfectly at 12 when it fully completed the date change.

Quite easy, remove the hands, turn the stem to time setting, wind it till 12pm and take it slow and carefully stop when the date flick over(or fully change on some of yours).
Then reattach the hands at 12pm.
There you go. Done.

And you can only do that with your 2836 and probably the 2824 because their date change mechanism letting them to do so.

Thanks for the info bros...
i know nuts about modding myself....
but seems like there's no way for it to flip strictly at 12am like gen instead, it will be base on progressive shifting from 11pm range to 12am...
guess i'll just have to live with it.....

but i'm surprised that such issue wasn't really mentioned when people do comparison between the rep and gen.. hahaa....

assuming 11.59pm is on 23rd...
A2386 can b modded in a way whereby when 2nd hand needle crosses 12....the time changed to 12am, the date will immediately flip to 24th?

Yes, the 2836 date change mechanism instantly flippin the date wheel, so it can be adjust per gen.

Here's a video on it http://youtu.be/h7Wt2QaWdsk

It is a comparison date change mechanism.
