Just one, Nicolas. The others . . .
. . . are resting peacefully in a bank vault. Their turn will come next year . . .
There's black magic . . .
. . . and then, there's . . . . . . grey magic ;-) . . . ...
Here the date has already changed...
...and everything went flawlessly! Best, massi ...
At 0:03 everything was done
I took the shot after few minutes... About 30 minutes for changing day and month, while the date start changing at 19:00 circa. Really a pleasure to look at all this hard work made by the movement! Best, Nico massi
Remember that afternoon at Maggie's . . .
. . . with the guys from JLC, and telling me their perpetual was the real perpetual? G O cal 39: transition complete within several minutes after midnight. :-)
Soon, Consigliere, you'll be telling Darko . . .
. . . "Livarsi na petra di la scarpa" . :-)
I've never been in So Cal, but...
I have the impression that I would find well there: what do you think Nico?! I'm wrong? ;-)
No longer owning a perpetual, I am forced to do the opposite:
I am wearing a watch with no date. Always nice to see yours, Art, and it's certainly looking its best on that strap. Enjoy the transition this evening.
Full calendars may jump also...
mine with a little help of a watchful lion. Cheers, Urinousuke ...
So long as you're up at midnight to make the change . . .
. . . then absolutely yes !
Haha, well observed. But mine wasn't an early jumper (I believe),took the pic close to
noon the following day. Best, Urinosuke
A few more hours here in Maine...
But definately staying up! First year with the Svend :-) Best, Mike ...
...great in summer, when the bracelet sticks like glue on your wrist.
In the cold season the bracelet's just a little bit too lose to be really comfortable. Sorry, my dear RO PC, you'll have to wait for some more months to get back to action... But enough of bad RO vibes, it's an amazing watch, Nicholas! Get one if ther's a...
I'll let you know Feb 2016!
Probably I don't qualify as a good PC wearer, only checked in the morning and was happy with the job done I promise to stay up Feb 16 for the Leap Year! Best, Uri
How can I not?
Was sporting this last night intensively around midnight, trying to catch that 'flash'! While taking this out from the safe and enjoyed the slow progression... Then this morning had the pleasure of adjusting these two pieces... Wishing a perfect transitio...
You rang? I must have nodded off, mine was still on the winder
But I'm wearing it now, when it counts Mike ...
Well the watch didn't forget
Apparently things went (dare I say it?) like clockwork! ...
It's an annual tradition for me to wear my AP RO perpetual calendar
Here's a shot from the office before starting the weekend. ...

It was supposed to ...
change final date change (hence "semi") day and month instantaneously right at midnight. Being a prototype, it didn\'t quite work out that way... Don\'t remember about production versions. Of course YOU would ask the question...
well..
Don't we all know too well about what certain movements are SUPPOSED to do and what they ACTUALLY do... Actually I was hoping for some spectacular marketing spin for the answer to my question though... ...
Well, at least you were able to take a photo . . .
. . . during the transition, Ronald. I wasn't home last night; my perpetual performed its magic on a winder, unseen. Only 365 days to go to catch the magic next year ;-( . . . ...
Thanks. I tried to capture the transition but my first wrist shot...
Was out of focus. Another opportunity next year.
...on a winder, unseen...sounds like poor lonlely PC singing to itself...
How about a camera set up in front of the winder, just to cheer it up? Best, Urinosuke
. . . (sigh) . . .
. . . even worse - I was cheating last night with a vintage Omega ;-( . . .
