Patek Philippe

Nice touch

 


It’s nice that, as an additional reminder, they put the leap year indicator “4” in red. It catches the eye.

On the other hand, the one thing that makes a perpetual so special is that in the leap year it jumps from 28 feb to 29 feb than to 1 march, hence the watch already knows it’s a leap year and thus the owner doesn’t have to think about it.

So if the owner doesn’t have to think about it, why than put the indicator in red?

But it does bring another question to mind: why is the date indicator “1” in red as well?
