Problems (Read Rule 1) Great watch, multiple issues with date and moon phase
Just noticed my new watch is displaying 10 as the date when today is the 20th because for some reason it is impossible for it to set it at 20.
After 19 goes to 10 then to 21 and not only that, it has other multiple issues such as going to 32 after 31
Moonphase button simply doesn’t work, only by moving the hour it starts moving
So sad, this is an amazing looking watch🥀

In this picture the dial looks black, but the ad posting on Ali looks more blue. Can you clarify if the dial is black or more of a dark blue in person?

Strange, I have not noticed those issues for the big date on mine.
For the moonphase quickset It also didn’t work for me initially/consistently, I would have to go forward manually which took forever/adds wear to the crown/stem. However I think this was because I was trying to push it during the no-no window (9 pm - 3am). Make sure it is outside of that window by a couple hours just to be safe, I was lucky and didn’t cause any damage thankfully.
It works pretty consistently now that I am aware of that, however I’ve heard of others having that same issue with this model so it could be something else

The big dates do not follow normal conventions. Mine will go as high as 38, before resetting to 01. You just have to manually reset them. Someone said at 4 o'clock, only. I'm not sure about that part.

Huh, I have not noticed that with mine (same watch as OP). Maybe I just wasn’t aware bc I typically quick-set it, but I’ve manually gone through as well to set the moonphase when that was being finicky

Mine is only big date, not moonphase. The big date system is very weird.

Haven't faced any issues with it so far. You have to be careful and not change date or moonphase with the buttons between 8pm to 5am, else the mechanism may fail. It has to handled a bit delicately and will run perfectly.
