Just a thought... there is a good chance the internal clock battery of the M3 will be trashed after sitting unused for so many years. This would be a valid warranty claim. Canon generally does not repair M bodies, but instead swaps them for refurbished units. Refurbished M3's and even M6's are long gone. Canon might replace a warrantied defective M3 with a refurbished M6 II.

Thank you for the tip, speaking of this the G3X actually has this issue where when turned on, sometimes the date and time is re-setted asking you to input the latest date and time, at first I actually thought it's cause I took out the batteries or I didn't power it on a few days. But now could be what you exactly mentioned. Not really a big issue for me for the time being but I can consider the route you outlined in the future.
