db15 change over 28 feb
Hi Guys
bought a DB15 in December which dates from 2004. Being my 1st perp I eagerly awaited to see what happened on 28th Feb and was somewhat surprised. I had expected instantaneous correction to 1st March at midnight.
Instead the date hand moved to 29th at around 7pm, 30th at around 9pm, 31st at 10pm and 1st march at midnight. I can only assume this is normal as it worked but just checking that it is !
thanks

This is like how
GO does it with a full transition by midnight. Also, I'm not sure but I think for the DB15 there are 2 different movements with the new movement being an instant jumper. Again, I'm not sure so the heavy weights here will chime in. For instant jumpers, I c...
My bad Arthur and I believe it's been explained that the Moser
is infact doing the 'instant jump' with its month hand too, though from my naked eye I can see it slid to '3' fairly quickly while the date jumped 'too fast' for my naked eyes, thus that 'instant' effect from my video they both appeared 'instant' until yo...
I can confirm my DB15 does exactly the same
No problems with the watch at all. Congrats!! Which combination is yours?
thanks
thanks for this. mine is red gold, plain dial, has the 3 pronged balance wheel. still working out exactly how read the leap year phase, assuming the the star dissapears this year and stays hidden until the next leap year approaches in 2011...
For the leap year indicator, I think...
Leap year is when the indicator shows a full moon, which was 2008 (and 2012), so 2010 should be 2 years after that, which should show only half the moon.
