Independents

Hi all

My DB 17 does not automatically change the date from 28to 1st today. It only change from 28 to 29.  But when i wind to change the date, it automatically jumps to 1st ....  I thought a perpetual calender watch will take care of this problem ?   What could be wrong ?

cheers, cheng

 

 

2010 is not a leap year, you have to check if its possible on your watch to adjust it
perhaps that is just the problem !!

a perpetual will function like a annual calender ? anyone else facing the same problem ? 

Is that the watch "thinks" it is a leap year rather than a regular year, and therefore inserted the 29th.  If so, you will need to adjust the watch forward by 2 years to get it back to the right point in the 4-year cycle.  What you saw (29th jumping to 1st) is consistent with a "leap year" transition.

Hope that this is the issue rather than any mechanical problem!

Best,

that's exactly what I wanted to explain this morning... Can't do best...

Thanks guys for clarifying ..... appreciate it

how can i do that adjustment ? or do i have to get the AD to do it ? 

the leap year indication is integrated into the sky under the moon on your watch !
You can normally change it, correcting the months ! 2 full circle of months (24 months-2years) 

will get it fixed.....
