I recently purchased a 228235 from what I thought was a reputable dealer but now I may be having second thoughts. I absolutely love the watch but when I woke up this morning I noticed something really odd about it. While it should have read Monday 1, it actually says Monday 32. I figure that maybe it's a foreign model from a country that has 32 days in a month. Do you feel that this is cause for any authenticity concerns or should i just ignore it? Thanks.

Must be a Norwegian watch. They have 32 days in February so that they can have more skiing days (oddly enough, this was told to me today

)
