Looking for advice on PP moon-phase - PP web site wrong ? Looking for adviice on setting.
- does full moon cover 2 days on Patek watches?
(I doubt that ;-)
I went to PP web site and check moon -phase setting for two watches (5135 and 5146) for Jan 2007
I found it interesting that when you set their web site calendar to 3rd and 6th of Jan 2007,
the moon is just about clearing the moon-phase aperture on the left (Jan 3rd) and right (Jan 6th).
However it is in the same position (dead center) for 2 full days - Jan 4th and 5th.
BUT !!.....Full moon for Jan 2007 - is on Jan 3rd !!
First of all - I am pretty sure that "Full Moon" is only one day of the month.
Secondly - do you guys have any explanation why PP web calculator for moon-phase would be
motionless for 2 full days - I doubt that the moon disc in their watches is ;-)
...and finally - since according to several sources, Full Moon for Jan 2007 is on Jan 3rd...it is probably better
not to pay much attention to PP web site when it comes to moon-phase.
When should I reset my watch to full moon? As I recall PP moon phase changes on most
watches at about noon - should I make the re-set / correction ..let's say about 3 - 4PM on Jan 3rd ??
TIA.
