Easy it's not a quick set date. You have to roll through all the numbers to get back to 1 or 01. ;)

A watch is a device that measures 24hrs. and then advances the date about 11 degrees. On a big date the 2 dials are 1 through 3 and the other is 1 through 9. If you wanted a big date watch to go from 31 to 1 then you have to have an additional complication that counts 31 days and then resets both wheals back to 01.

Ty E!....many of the older Big dates go to 38 but as E states the newer ones with the added complication end at 31 and now I know whyhand6.gif
