i m looking a analogue watch to replace my digital watch

just found out some of the analogue watches with date display but can't differentiate is 30-day or 31-day month (or february).
that mean at 1st-may i must manually adjust date to '1' or else i m seeing 31th-apr.

is it common for all date only analogue watches?
or i am looking at inferior analogue watches?
or to get correct date i must get a watches that capable to track month?

Yes it is common on date function watch.
You need a month function or perpetual calender watch if you do not want to change the date manually at month end.

most mechanical watches are not capable of leap-yr and mths of 30 or 31 days or when to change Jan->Feb
I wouldn't that as inferior, as it would cost alot of money to get watches that do.

when U said analogue, U could a quartz watch with analog dial that does all that

ok thanks
now i can lower my budget a little bit since i will be looking for quartz analogue watch to serve my purpose.
never know such trait is common for many watch after wearing digital for so long.
