Here the date has already changed...

 
 By: massi. : February 28th, 2015-15:17
...and everything went flawlessly! Best, massi ...  

At 0:03 everything was done

 
 By: massi. : March 1st, 2015-04:25
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. :-)

Yes, you . . .

 
 By: Dr No : March 1st, 2015-14:18
. . . would. :-) ...  

Soon, Consigliere, you'll be telling Darko . . .

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? ;-)

I'm just putting on my....

slippers :)

No longer owning a perpetual, I am forced to do the opposite:

 
 By: mkvc : February 28th, 2015-15:44
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...

 
 By: maronetti : February 28th, 2015-18:38
mine with a little help of a watchful lion. Cheers, Urinousuke ...  

So long as you're up at midnight to make the change . . .

 
 By: Dr No : March 1st, 2015-13:55
. . . then absolutely yes !

A few more hours here in Maine...

 
 By: mkt33 : February 28th, 2015-16:34
But definately staying up! First year with the Svend :-) Best, Mike ...  

A beauty!...

 
 By: pplater : February 28th, 2015-17:23
...(but you knew that already, right?). Cheers, pplater.

Taking a rest....

 
 By: maronetti : February 28th, 2015-18:13
after a successful jump. Best, Urinosuke ...  

...great in summer, when the bracelet sticks like glue on your wrist.

 
 By: maronetti : February 28th, 2015-23:23
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... 

Very nice!

Does your AP make the jump exactly at midnight? Regards, ED-209

I'll let you know Feb 2016!

 
 By: maronetti : February 28th, 2015-23:30
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?

 
 By: Jester : February 28th, 2015-20:12
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

 
 By: cazalea : February 28th, 2015-21:13
But I'm wearing it now, when it counts Mike ...  

Well the watch didn't forget

 
 By: cazalea : March 1st, 2015-07:03
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. ...

Thats right LOL [nt]

 
 By: ED209 : March 2nd, 2015-08:20

Can you remind us again

 
 By: Jester : March 2nd, 2015-07:28
how is it semi-instantaneous?

It was supposed to ...

 
 By: ThomasM : March 2nd, 2015-11:12
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..

 
 By: Jester : March 2nd, 2015-19:45
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... ...  

sorry for the late photo. (nt)

NT ...  

Well, at least you were able to take a photo . . .

 
 By: Dr No : March 1st, 2015-15:28
. . . 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...

 
 By: Ronald Held : March 1st, 2015-17:26
Was out of focus. Another opportunity next year.

...on a winder, unseen...sounds like poor lonlely PC singing to itself...

 
 By: maronetti : March 1st, 2015-20:22
How about a camera set up in front of the winder, just to cheer it up? Best, Urinosuke

. . . (sigh) . . .

 
 By: Dr No : March 1st, 2015-21:42
. . . even worse - I was cheating last night with a vintage Omega ;-( . . .
