P pongster^ nice
but without the leap year indicator, it’s a trial and error on feb 29/mar 2 when setting it?
I had it last overhauled about three years ago, and assumed the AP Service Center set the correct year. They did, it showed Feb 29th this year. As long as it is in your possession there is no need to fret about the correct year.
About $1,500 for a basic overhaul, extra if any significant parts are needed. Case refinishing not included.

Here is my AP perpetual calendar (Ref. 25682) from 1992.....full perpetual calendar as indicated on the back of the case. Just keep it wound and it'll do its thing month after month, year after year.
Many early perpetual calendar wristwatches, including Patek Philippe and Audemars Piguet, did not have a leap year indicator but that has no effect on their ability to handle the Feb 29 issue every four years.
