What a beautiful watch sir ! Grail ! I tried it at the QP Salon 2013 in London and it’s a stunner !
Was split between this and the 5204P..did not pull the trigger on either due to financial constraints but next complicated watch will be either of the two ..
Set Calendar
Now need to figure out how to set moon and leap year. Book a little confusing, then how on earth will I keep it wound everyday?? Could have bigger problems for sure! ...

what. I do

all correct :)
for some reason, adjusting a watch is one of my therapy. I love adjusting watches to the correct time, I only leave the moon phase out because then I have to look online.
Manual Winder Vacheron
