At the end of the Chinese year of the dragon this Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Hybris Artistica Calibre 945 Dragon is released. Is it late to the party?
A dynamic (diachronic) annual calendar displays the hour, day, date, and month. The first of the month is automatically adjusted following months of 30 or 31 days. Mostly, a manual correction is needed for the first of March or on the 28th day of February. Or the 29th in leap years.
.
An annual calendar is less complicated and expensive than a perpetual calendar, which will not require manual adjustment till 2100. As that year will not be a leap year, even though its number is evenly divisible by 4. Another calendar option for watches is the triple calendar, also known as triple date or complete calendar.
