So is there another hand (shorter) that points to the LY indicator?
Wondering how the leap year thing works...
The cap is just a cap right?...so with the LY indicator there, is there a shorter hand (hidden underneath the month hand) that comes out when it is a leap year and points to the LP text?
I would assume if this is the case, this hand would be shorter?!?
Just curious now with this amazing piece - love it!

Baselworld 2009 - Peter Speake-Marin
Of course Peter was proudly showing the watches with his new in-house movement. The first series of 20 will be delivered this year, some of them including a perpetual calendar....
Fabulous stuff, Don.
This is a riotous assembly of Speake-Marin masterpieces you have catalogued with your camera. The dials are as different from each other as they are from any other watch on the market. One of the many things I love about Mr Speake-Marin's work is that he ...
Thanks Don, great shots
Great shots Don! Thanks. Nice to see the SM2 cased up proper now. The 1 in 20 QP is so lovely to see whole. Tony, I think Zep is the perfect segway for Peter. Where would rock music be without Led Zep? We'll find out, not too long down the road, where wou...
Beautiful,Stunning & Magnificent watches...................
Can somebody please tell me what the window is just above the 6 o'clock position on the second watch down? I think that the watch is a QP and was wandering whether it was the leap year indicator
It's a spherical moonphase.
If you look closely, you can see a suggestion of a crescent shaped dark area to the right. I think this may be the seam between the metallic and dark parts of the sphere. I'm pretty certain this watch is a QP but there is no leap year indicator on the dia...
Here's a photo demonstrating the moonphase.
In fact I think the moonphase might be a static metallic surface, over which passes some type of blocking screen mounted on a disc. Also note the letters "LY" in the upper left of the 12 o'clock subregister, and the little dot on the central cap over the ...

wow. so beautiful
and of course very unique. wish the Case size was bigger. i don't know what Mr SM think about Larger watches.( btw. they definitely look great on the Ladies' wrists.) Tony
Case sizes
The watches with the F 2012 movements come in 38mm or 42mm. Also, there have been 36mm versions as well. I think it took Mr. SM a while to warm to the 42mm size. But, I have seen him enjoy wearing the 42mm, a lot. I was initially drawn to the 42mm, but I ...
Thanks Don, Great Pictures of Great Watches
The watches with new movements look fantastic, too bad they won't be available in steel. I would love to get my Serpent Calendar a mate! (Martin - I'm starting to save!!!!)
Beautiful as always
The perpetual calendar is just stunning, as is the chronometer (?). PSM has been busy. Congrats.
I'm always impressed by PSM.
I like that all his designs meld traditional and modern elements. The new movement is lovely, and IMO the Marin-1 is a real watchmaker's watch. Quite possibly the Shimoda is my favorite of PSM's designs though. Every time I see the Shimoda with Chinese ch...
