Audemars Piguet introduced its ultra-thin self-winding perpetual calendar calibre 2120/2800 in 1978, reviving the complication in serially produced round dress watches before extending it to the Royal Oak. These watches display the day, date, month and moon phase without manual calendar correction until 2100. (AP Chronicles) In Quick Change (1990), a hostage offers Bill Murray's bank robber Grimm a perpetual calendar described as showing "the day, date, month and the moon on it." Co-director Howard Franklin said the watch was Murray's own and was written into the script at the actor's request after frustrations with servicing costs. No reference, case metal, or model line is given, so the specific watch remains unidentified. (Deployant)
