    A terrific watch

    Congratulations, enjoy! I like the angle of the second picture, showing it in an interesting way. Do you use the marker as a special function? I believe you might use it like I do, as a manual date indicator.

    Kind regards,
    Paul, wearing yellow gold Portuguese Perpetual Calendar

    Manual marker

    1 = 1, or 13, or 25
    2 = 2, or 14, or 26
    7 = 7, or 19, or 31
    Every day when you rise you:
    - have to wind the watch manually
    - have to move the marker one position, or a few more to 1 at the beginning of a new month
    After this terrific exercise you are fully ready to face the troubles of the day.

    Kind regards,
    Paul, wearing steel VC Pilot's watch, marker at 11
