I have seen this before too but assumed it was the "default" date as it would go away after auto-GPS clock found a satellite

So I have seen that there is no NFC in the Bangle,js itself and nothing on the software side that would make adding one easy.
That said I wondered if anyone had tried adding just a (non-powered) NFC chip to the inside/outside of the bangle (or even as part of the strap)?
I was thinking something simpler to what people do to mod the old Casio watches (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-BTN5aQKKg0
).
They use a rather cheep sticker NFC chip here (https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00PUELZMS/ref=as_li_qf_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&tag=techsas05-21&creative=6738&linkCode=as2&creativeASIN=B00PUELZMS&linkId=b1d2d4ad23ad25880d66e885aa5391a2).I am not sure you could/should use them for contactless payment but still could be a nice add one for the price?
What do people think? worth doing adding? and where to put it if I do? -
There is no "upvote" here but that sounds awesome @Gordon
Only tried the update for a day so far but seems good. will check back after the week -
awsome I will update to it tonight and see if it helps :-)

Adding to what we know.
I have seen on my own bangle the % of battery go from 1-3 and then move around that level for the rest of the day. I think it is clear the battery % is not very accurate -
@Gordon yes it is 2V06 but I think you can ignore me as the min it was connected to power it jumped to 70% so I think it is just a point that the battery widget is a bit buggy

Well, I will see what I can do @Fram, Not that good with doing videos but we will see.
Would you recommend any particular Piezos @Gordon? I am not looking for anything that load. Honesty I use my watch as an alarm to wake me up but not my partner, so just improving it a little bit would be good for me :-) -
This is Just the kind of thing I wanted to do! Thanks @Fram !
Any advice for someone trying to do this now?
I am not the best sold-er in the world so I wondered how hard it is to do this? don't want to mess up my watch :-P
Oww are you talking about wrapping the antenna around the black bit of plastic sitting between the glass and the LCD? That could look really cool and likely get a good signal.
I have a feeling this project will just need a bit of trile and error to find what works best. that said they are cheap so good project to solve in that way :-)
Let you guests know how it goes
