If I set the date on my casio watch during the AM (pull knob one click and rotate), the date rolls over at noon, if I set the date in the afternoon, the date will not roll over until the next noon. How can I sync to midnight?
Thats because analog watches don't know the difference between AM/PM. First reset the time, moving the hour and minute hands another 12 hours will let you know exactly what mode its in (am/pm) first allowing you to set the date correctly.
I will add some clarification. When the hands pass 12 and the date changes this is midnight or 12 "am". When the hands pass 12 and the date does 'not' change, this is noon. A foolproof method to set the date is to start with the date set to yesterday's date.
Do this with the crown pulled out to the first position. Now pull the crown out to the second position and advance the hands until the date changes. This will be midnight . Continuing to advance the hands you will see the date change to the correct date. Now advance the hands to the correct time. Remember that the date changing occurred at midnight so if it is afternoon you will have to advance the hands past 12 (note the date did not change) and stop at the correct time. Now evernight at midnight the date will change. Sounds more difficult than it is. Try it!

Simple way----> Just rotate and forward the clock 12 hours from current time (after rotation of hands you will get current time again!!), so that I it will change the date today night.
Try this : stop the watch for 12 hours(ex:stop it at 3 am wait 12 hours and after that start it at 3 pm)
