be careful of slivers if the toothpicks are wooden.

sometimes they splinter and the slivers can get stuck.

I try very hard not to wear dirty underwear...π€£π And yes, I am OCD in other areas...which makes me wonder why wrong month date dont bother me more...

Absolutely, everything set .correct.

Speaking of underwear, being caught with your perpetual, annual or even simple date incorrect is like being caught with your pants down. Actually, I think the level of embarrassment should increase in line with complication; date - pants down, annual cale...
Lol!

Even the year indicator, otherwise why a perpetual?
Sounds like you need a concubine or 5.
By: TheMadDruid : May 19th, 2018-04:44
If you only have one perpetual this is not an overwhelming job. It just becomes soul-sapping about 6 months into possession when you remembered you've worn your Dufour, or Smith, or Journe for two weeks now and the perpetual needs a whole lotta adjusting....
Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. But I have a confession ...

... even when I do set the perpetual calendar, I can't read the sub-dials, anyway. On all the watches I have, I can read the time and, on the ones with big dates or a cyclops, the date. But I don't and never have bought good watches to tell the time. I wa...
Always has to be correct

Otherwise one feels like a slob; like not having your shirt & tie properly done or having a shoelace loose.
Lol we've met...

My calendar is a JLC with the IWC coordinated system. All I need (on the JLC adaptation) is a toothpick and a few flicks of the wrist. I imagine that this would be more burdensome if I actually had to adjust the indications separately and look up a moon a...

Hi five Gordon
By: traineract : May 19th, 2018-05:03
Me too! I do that most of the time, hence I need to wear my date watches over an extended period!
Haha yes!
By: traineract : May 19th, 2018-19:57
For my psm, which I rarely wear, I really do not set the date most of the time! Plus the date is not v obvious to me. Haha

I could not wear a perpetual without correct settings!
I set the time every time

I always set the date and month, and
By: SRG : May 20th, 2018-09:19
usually set the moonphase so I can see the moon. I rarely set the moon to a new moon. I figure I'd rather see the moon on the dial than be absolutely correct in its setting.
Beautiful!

I prefer the simplicity of the stick markers but can appreciate the beautiful of the romans... Thanks for sharing!
Problem solved!

This is my Underwood safe shipped to me from Italy. The watches in the picture are not current as I have done a lot of changing but it certainly takes care of my perpetual and annual calendars! ...
I do
By: benzng : May 23rd, 2018-16:23
its one of my favorite thing to do when I wear a perpetual. Wind about 30x then set the time/date. it usually takes less than 5 min and have a tooth pick as push pins :0
