    I just love the new annual calendar - and I'm very seldom attracted to modern watches.

    Would it be possible to see a view of the under dial works? I'm curious about how the day-date display is constructed.

    Best regards,

    Henrik

    Not that this helps you but there is a great pic of the movement in the new catalog. I can post a shot of it later.

    Cheers,

    Jarrod

    Thanks Jarrod, a movement picture goes a long way towards Nirvava:)

    Henrik,

    I asked Stefan Ihnenand he told me that:
    - datefigure in the middle: is a regular 'large' disk with 1-31 on it
    - both the month and dayare small disks and should be on the same 'level'/plane (not sure if they're above or below the date disk)

    I couldn't visually see a difference in 'height' between the disks, which is good of course.

    You operate the dateand day /b with the crown in 2nd position: turn it clockwise operates the [b]Day, anti-clockwise the Date.
    The monthis not operated through the crown but will just follow the Day/Date. Very crisp and smart operation when I tried it!

    BB

    PS: sorry, I only followed the link now but it confirms what I heard ;-)
