Change date on the RM030 !!!!
Hi everyone !!! I got a Richard Mille 030 and the date is changing only 20 minutes past mid-night. Everyday it changes the date on the wrong time !! Does anyone know if I can adjust that or the watch has a problem ? Thanks a lot, Alberto
Sorry to hear this. I would take it along to the AD from
whom you purchased the watch. Sounds as if the date mechanism needs an adjustment, and I would only let an AD touch the watch. Let me know how it turns out. Andrew H
I agree!!!
Andrew, I agree with you, but the only problem is that I'm living in Brasil and going back to Miami (where I bought) only in 6 months... Anyhow thats what I should do... Thanks for the comment !! Alberto
not sure...

question
Chris, I have spoken with some technicians and they agree with your point ! But there is still one question I didnt understand, why each date change occurs in different tine (sometimes 21 minutes after 12pm sometimes 25 minutes...), you think it can be th...
date change
Should change between five-to midnight and five past midnight (same date change mechanism as RM10), having said that, it's not a major problem and I would hold on until you can get it to your AD, it's not a big job just a small hand adjustment.
My opinion is this..
First of all I dont have a RM or any watch with an "inhous" mvmnt, One of my watches is a Tiffany with an ETA mvmnt and it switiching instantly within + or - 5 seconds at midnight, if that can your RM can.
