Sound like what you want is a 5035R.

Anyone aware of a watch that can differentiate months with 30 to 31 days ?

Hi there Anyone aware of a watch that can differentiate months with 30 to 31 days ?

Yes, of course. It's called a Perpetual Calendar or an Annual Calendar.

The perpetual calendar also accounts for leap years. The annual calendar does not.

thanks a lot for the info

then is anyone aware of a watch around 37/38 mm and not too thick with the perpetual calendar?

There are lots of models available with around those dimensions.

Most, if not all of the watch companies covered by a forum on this site make at least one perpetual calendar. It would be best to let us know your budget and case metal preferences (precious metal or steel? If precious metal, then gold vs. platinum? If go... 

indeed..

Ideally I would go for rose gold if not then steel. I don't really have a specific budget, it would really depend on the watch. I will defo not have enough savings for the 5140P for ex even if I love it. Top of the top would be a thin watch with a blue di... 

JLC makes a Master Ultra Thin Perpetual in Rose Gold with an eggshell dial. It is gorgeous.

The JLC MUT Perpetual is 39 mm, so slightly larger than your desired range, but it is fairly thin on the wrist. Terrific value for what you get given other watch makers' offerings at JLC's end of the spectrum. That's the piece that jumps quickly to mind.

JLC MUT Perpetual, as suggested by John. 39 mm, and as its name suggests, thin and very elegant. But you have a second hand

Master Perpetual, in platinum, with a blue dial. 37 mm. At a very good price for what it is. Best, Nicolas

Could also, of course, buy a discontinued model (e.g., Patek 3940).

3940 is awesome but

it will be a bit too exp for me so far... I currently have a montblanc 39mm and it's a little big on my wrist (my wrist is 16 cm) the JLC seems great I will definitely have a try in the old bond street shop

You have 2 kind of complications doing this

The Perpetual Calendar (the most expensive of date display among the 3 types available): it recognizes the 30 or 31 but also the february 28 or 29. The Annual Calendar created by Patek Philippe 20 years ago (20th anniversary this year with the launch of a... 

thanks a lot for your reply

 
 By: Watch_kha_wen : May 2nd, 2016-04:27
I love the 5140 especially in blue dial I tried it in central london, but it's way too expensive for me... even in second market though I had a look at the 6000G in blue dial, would this one not do the diff between 30 and 31 ? I don't mind manually changi... 

The 6000 is not an annual calendar, hence...

 
 By: GLau : May 2nd, 2016-07:26
every month you need to manually adjust the date However, 6000 costs much less than an annual calendar watch Good luck with your search and keep us updated!

No the 6000G doesn't either

 
 By: Mark in Paris : May 2nd, 2016-08:50
It is a normal date display. I tried this 6000G blue and it is a stunner indeed Try to have a look at the second-hand Annual Calendar I mentionned (or the previous generations, the 5035 which can be in your budget), you may perhaps find something more in ...

Patek makes one of the best perpetual calendars

 
 By: Poky : May 2nd, 2016-05:33
My only problem with their perpetuals is that the date is on a dial with a hand indication which I find too small to read. My personal preference is a Patek annual calendar with a date window.

Did you consider 5205 or 5905 or 5960?

Cheers, Patrickh

love them...

 
 By: Watch_kha_wen : May 5th, 2016-14:48
but way too expensive for me for the moment...
