changes, it means it is midnight, and if the date does not
change, it means it is noon.

2) Turn the crown to advance the date (E) chronologically,
until the desired date appears.
3) Reset the crown (Position 1).
For months with less than 31 days, the date must be changed
manually at the end of the month.
