How important is the correct date to you?

How important is the correct date to you?
I am a bit of OCD and have in the past, adjusted the date as per the day whenever I rotate my watches.



But after a while, I started to just adjust the time and wear it for the day. If I have to check the date, there is always the phone, or my colleagues, or my wife, or whoever is next to me to check (ok sometimes I kanna the deadly stare, "look at your @%#* watch"....that's besides the point).



I am also trying to look for watches without the date function, but there are limited choices.



So, just curious, how important is the correct date to you on your watch?

Date/Day is very important to me 8-)



even for those non-quickset models, i will set to the exact date slowly via 24hrs :?

The correct date is essential for my work...hence i prefer watches with date or day date display. One with annual calendar complication is on my hit list.

It is very important to me Bro. I can't explain it but if not correct it's like something is missing.

I adjusted the date wrong recently. Only got to know that I set the date wrongly after I took a picture of the watch and wanted to post on the wruw thread. Wanted to close one eye but I just couldn't. Lol

Too lazy to adjust date. Preferences is to get watches with no date.

Hoot the latest v198 race timers by Seiko. Date adjust problem will solve. ;)

To me having the correct ime and date is important. Otherwise why do we fuss about COSC or other time standards. If too lazy or not bothered to adjust then just wear a no date watch or a quartz perpetual..just my 2cents ;)

But you look so young on your avatar....!!! Unless it was a shot taken many years back....heehee.



With "old flower eyes", I tend to appreciate cyclops on watches more - if there is a date function.



Alternatively, watches with big date windows would also come in handy.
