Does anyone know if a SUPER AVENGER knows how many days are in each month?

When I spin my date wheel, it keeps spinning to 31 days, every time....bizarre or normal?

Do I have to change the date back everytime it falls in a month less than 31 days? Its a diamond version, not sure if that matters

It assumes 31 days in every month as does any mechanical watch that isn't an annual, semi-perpetual or perpetual calendar. Make sure that you read the warnings in the manual about not using the quick set date between 8pm and 3am.

thanks roff, I know about the times not to set it at, 8-3.
so basically what your saying is that every month, if there is less than 31 days, I have to stop my watch somehow, i guess by not wearing it and then re program the date?

If you're on the 1st of the current month, and your SA is showing "31", just wait till you're out of the 8pm-3am danger zone, and advance the date on your SA to "1".

As H2F says, there's no need to stop the watch, just get up in the morning and assuming that it's after 3am use the quick set date to advance to the correct day.
