Dendo 93 Posted April 17, 2012 Tonight I had to fix the hands back on a watch that someone else had removed. The hands had 'fallen off' so I knew they had not been set to 12 before the hands were removed. So I put the hands on as a trial, so I could remove them again and fix them to twelve, once I saw the date flip over. For ease of placement I put them on at twenty to nine. Turned the hands through twelve (noon as it turned out), and then as I get to midnight on the next round, exactly at midnight, the date flips. He also said the keyless works were F$%^$ed but I stuck the stem in and pressed the release button and it worked. Better to be lucky than good as they say Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
