I’m realizing this morning that when I was fiddling with my watch last night, I might have operated the quick set function while it was in the danger zone. It had lost power reserve and stopped moving halfway between changing the date, which had never happened before, so I started it up again and did a few quick and hand set changes of the date wheel to make sure everything was okay as like I said I didn’t know if a watch stopping mid date change was bad for the movement. Anyway, I might have made those adjustments while the hands were in the danger zone, but I’m not sure. Would there be clear signs of damage had I done so? This morning the watch works fine and the date wheel changes normally indicating there are no broken teeth on the wheel or anything like that, but I don’t know. Let me know if I should still be concerned, or if it’s probably fine.

    Always thought this only applies to either old watches or new complex watches like annual calendars or perpetual and so on
