Yep. A mechanical watch complication that automatically adjusts for 30/28 day months is called a perpetual calendar. The cheapest Swiss-made perpetuals are $20,000+.

I almost always change watches at halftime (5 o'clock). That might sound weird anywhere besides a WIS forum

I must be in the minority. As soon as I get home I take my watch off and put it on the winder.
