Your imagination can rest peacefully, massimiliano . . .
. . . it's my understanding that the Calendar Week movement compensates for the rare year with 53 weeks so long as it's properly set on January 1st. I will double-check for you with Our Man in Glashütte.
The Calendar Week has an incredibly complex movement, and is perhaps the least appreciated complication in the field. Unfortunately, weekly business planning is virtually unknown in America, so consequently there's practically no demand for this unique design here. I've only seen two in dealer showcases, with perhaps a few held amongst the members of this forum.
I truly hope you'll be the next ;-) . . . cordially, Art
Week Calendar: change to W01
Hi guys! I'm a lover of watchmaking and GO is a little jewel: last year for a very important I bought a Senator Navigator Perpetual, and I love it (apart it runs too speedy, around 13 sec/day... too much for a watch of this level :-( - now it is in Glashu...

Thank you very much Art for your answer! I'm really curious to know how to manage the last week of the year... I have another question: do you know if is it possible to change the original strap of the Senator with another kind of strap, without the "stra...
Hi, Massi - the Senator Navigator perpetual comes . . .
. . . with straps that don't conform to the curvature of the case, unlike other Senators in the 40 mm case size. Is this what you're referring to? G O refers to these straps as being made for "integrated lugs". I don't believe G O offers straps that fit t...
Hallo Art
Hallo Art! In effect my Navigator Perpetual has a wonderful strap, without the contour of the shape of the case: I don't like this design and it doesn't feel good in the wrist, too hard because it doesn't bend mild around the wrist (...this is my personal...
It's a great watch, very under appreciated.
Only Germans and Nordic countries use the calendar week? Great for project management and academics following trimesters. Enjoy the watch. Strapwise, why not custom make one?
...also in Italy
Not only... in Italy (at least north Italy) we use the calendar week for all the foresee, planning and delivery time: this is true in particular for big/medium factories, where you can find very well organized structures. We work with the same concept (we...
