Doesn't seem very efficient...

It would seem so. Coincidentally I just read an article that the fewer the jewels means the more efficient!

The Sonata beats it by 29:)

Yes but it is more complicated. GMT / Alarm With 24 hours countdown / Grande Date which you can set forward and backward, and last but not least, an alarm which sounds like a minute repeater.

I had to Google this Sonata. Gosh that it one busy dial. For big date and clever alarm, I would happily stick to the GO Senator Diary

Does the Senator Diary sound like a minute repeater? And the main problem if I set my alarm on the 31st day is that I am pretty sure that I will forget what event the alarm has to remind me. :)
