Compared with the perpetual calendar, one of the three traditional complex functions in watchmaking, the structure of the annual calendar device is relatively simple. Although leap years cannot be recognized functionally, except for February, the annual calendar can automatically recognize large and small months, so it only needs to be adjusted once a year, which is relatively complicated and very convenient for daily wear. For this function, Longines replica of Switzerland once brought a grand and classic annual calendar watch-Master series annual calendar watch. The new product attracted the attention of most players as soon as it was announced.

Under the sapphire glass, the blue willow-shaped steel needle swings gracefully, with black Arabic numerals and minute scales printed on the periphery, which is elegant and unique.
