Once obtained, apply a small amount of the polisher to the watch surface. Use gentle circular motions to buff the entire watch, focusing on areas with dirt or grime buildup. After polishing, use a clean microfiber towel to buff the watch, removing any remaining polish residue and restoring shine. However, if you're uncertain about the build quality or materials of your watch, it's advisable to seek assistance from a professional watchmaker to prevent damage.

It turns out that I had the wrong date set. Once you set the correct date, it will automatically correct the day of the week on its own.
