Have Omega ever made a Perpetual Calendar?
i was ony thinking this morning that in all the years i've collected Omegas i dont think i've ever seen a mechanical perpetual calendar. they do the cosmic triple date moonphase and the speedmaster triple date which arent even annual calendars. they also do the constellation quartz 'perpetual calendar' which doesnt count.
if anyone can come up with a perpetual or annual calendar model please post it.

thanks Art. 1 question though, how does it know which month it is. or to be more precise, how does the owner know which month it is? best Graham
