Should you change date if you fly through date change line from east to west and you have UTC time on your watch?
No. Your watch isn't reading the time of the place where you are, and the date didn't change at the place whose time your watch is reading. However, should you ever become interested in knowing the time and date in the place where you are, then you'll need to look at your watch and do some translating. You'll need to know how many hours from UTC the place is where you happen to be, and you'll also find it very useful to ask someone the date, if you haven't kept track of it along the way.
