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.

The 2836 and 2824 should change instantaneously. Whether or not it's right at 12 exactly depends on how well it was set up when assembled. The 7750's take about 45 minutes. The ST2555, I have no idea since I never owned one but I'd guess it's a slow change since it's a copy of an older movement.

Are you sure it is a 2836 clone?, because either it's an ETA or clone the 2836 will change the date instantaneously.

Sometimes the ETA movements with the date wheel overlays in Rolex reps change slowly but it's only because the overlay is dragging and causing a problem.
