Should I advance this one more day? >>>>

Is this the correct setting for today.

The moonphase will 'click' forward one more step at midnight.

Any comments will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks and have a great weekend :-)

Well, it's a full moon right NOW - so 2 days.

Nad - it appears your moon phase is 2 days behind. So, you can advance it 2 clicks. Tomorrow will be one day past new.

Great looking watch.

I guess official UTC full moon is tomorrow...

So, perhaps advancing 1 day should do it.

Although all my IWCs are currently displaying a full moon - and most Moon phase calendars on line that I consulted show today as the full moon.

Link to North American Moon Phase Calendar...

Nad - if you're in North America (today) - this calendar in the link below, as well as several others that I found - indicate that 29 JAN 2010 is a full moon.

So, this looks better, right? Two clicks forward >

Should be dead center. nt

Yes. That's exactly where all my moons are...

Sorry for the confusion with all my earlier posts - even the link I provided indicates that the full moon is tomorrow on 30 JAN, not 29 JAN as I indicated.

On Sat Jan 30.

This story should clarify the full moon for tonight. Unfortunately, my skies are overcast and 6 - 8 inches of snow are expected tomorrow (30 Jan).

It's a blue moon for me

I didn't get the full moon on December 31, it arrived on January 1, so tonight (January 30) makes it a blue moon. But it gets better - there will be no full moon for February, the next arrives March 1 which means I'll get another blue moon on March 30.

Cheers from the cellar

Great information!! Thanks.

Hi Nad, technically Moon phase follows Zulu >

but there is also a Local time base used.

This U.S. Navy site shows Zulu time base. Click on "Data Services". aa.usno.navy.mil/

You can send it to me if you are unsure!

Lovely watch pal- happy Full Moon to you! :-)

Nad, buy a PPC and you will have the

exact answer. Unless it is the one day out of 577 years it needs adjustment.

Hi Richard! You once gave us this site

I think 3 years ago. It tells the full moon is on the 30th.
