Glossary

Annual Calendar

A complication that, at the very least, showcases the date, day, and month.


The annual calendar complication keeps track of the date, day of the week, and month, while automatically adjusting for the varying number of days in each month, except for February. This means that the watch only needs manual adjustment once a year at the end of February, to account for the difference between 28 or 29 days (in case of a leap year).
