I've just never seen it remarked on. By far the easiest way to deal with date or day and date in a 30 day month is to quick set the date to "31" on the afternoon of the 30th. Day should look after itself. Works with all of my watches.

Yup, I just do this trick as well

You are a real WIS...!

Or just wait until the next morning and move it from 31 to 1 before putting it on your wrist.

Take these. Then you only have to adjust it once a year.

I can't do this.

I only notice its off on the 1st of the month.

As per the previous poster. I just like having it right at 7 A.M. on the 1st when I'm usually not noticing much at all.

Try owning non-quickset date watches - huge pain in the ass if you go too far ahead.
