[Question] Does advancing the date set it to AM? (lemmy.world)

There's something I've always wondered about mechanical watches with a date. Does advancing the date start you of in the "AM" or does it stay in whichever half of the day AM/PM you were already in? I've been advancing the date by turning the hands to ensure I know which half of the day it's set to, but maybe this isn't necessary? Sorry if my question isn't worded very well.

Changing the day does not affect am/pm.
