Thanks! The Jazzmaster line up has some of their nicest watches imo!

I read in the instruction manual that the date can't be changed for the auto chrono or GMT's from 8pm-2am. Any idea why?

When you change the date be sure the watch is set to any time that is not 8PM to 2AM. Between these two times, the movement is using additional mechanisms to change the date, this will really screw up the mechanism of the watch if you try to set the date.

All watches are different so saying 8PM to 2AM is a wide range. For my Khaki King i just make sure its nowhere between 10PM and 2AM.

Also when changing the date and time on Hamilton watches, be sure to fast wind forward, it gets wonky when winding backwards, I thought I had broken my watch at one point when I didn't know how to set the dials by winding backwards.
