    We all have our time machines.
    Some take us back, they're called memories.
    Some take us forward, they're called dreams.

    (Jeremy Irons British Actor)

    Best wishes to all for the coming new year 2018!

    Thanks. In IWC's terms, they are called:

    Those take us back: we call them Dual-time and UTC.
    Those take us forward (and only forward): Perpetual Calendar. Once you set it forward, you can't set it back... you can only send it back (to IWC for repair).

    :)

    Happy New Year!
