There are certainly no overrides in the core component folder. I never do that, it is not upgrade safe.
I have turned on debugging now. Do you notice anything strange on: salario.be/dev/sociale-kalender ?

Execute the following queries with a tool like phpMyAdmin:

SELECT *
  FROM r2mgx_k2_items 
  WHERE YEAR(created)=2015 
  AND MONTH(created)=1 
  AND DAY(created)=14

SELECT *
  FROM r2mgx_k2_items 
  WHERE YEAR(created)=2015 
  AND MONTH(created)=1 
  AND DAY(created)=15

They will return the items for 14th and 15th of January. Look into the results the "created" field and verify that they match to what is printed in front-end.

Alright. I now see what is happening.

The value show in K2 Items for Date created is not the same as what is saved to the database. It is altered by the Joomla setting 'Server Time zone'.
So to see the real creation date that is saved to the database you need to check with PhpMyAdmin.
My problem was caused by a wrong time settings on the webserver, it seems it is using UTC time (although the control panel shows GMT+1) and my Joomla Time setting was also GMT+1. That created the difference, I now changed my Joomla setting to UTC and the problem is gone.

Thanks al you guys for your valuable tips !
