Perpetual Question

Do perpetual calendars automatically adjust for daylight savings time or does the owner have to do that twice a year?

Thanks in advance.

That’s a time change not a calendar change.

Arizona and Hawaii do not even follow DST in the US. Too hard for the watch to know where you are. So, the owners have to set. Score one to the Apple Watch.
