    So, I'm not sure why this has happened but my date doesn't change over until 4am. Whether it's being worn and it changes on it's own or when it's sat for a period of time and I'm adjusting the time manually it still only changes the date at 4am. Thank you for your input.

    What exact model is your watch?

    Did you previously see the date change at midnight, so you have confirmed that the timing of the date change has moved?

    yes. I've had the watch for 3 years and apart from it being a bit slow in keeping time it used to turn over a new day at midnight regularly without any issues, I don't recall how or what might've happened to make it switch to 4am.

    I'll ask again. What exact model is your watch?

    The most common cause for this is operator error. Use of the quick set date function while the date mechanism is already in the process of changing.

    apart from sending it in for repairs is there anything I can do to fix it? Or just live it I guess. Thank you.

    There's nothing you can do to fix this...
