Setting Date on Vintage Patek Perpetuals And Taking Into Account Leap Year without Indicator
How do you take into account Leap Year without having the indicator? Something that was always mysterious to me.
Yesterday's full moon gave me a furious need to wear that one...
...as I realize it was in the bank vault during summer holiday and I was missing it a lot. So back to this simple one that will now again get plenty of wrist time... Cheers, Mike ...

Merci Georges...
...and I take your health greetings with pleasure, you just have no idea...
I plead guilty...
