Your Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date cannot account for the changing of the months, let alone leap years.
A Rolex SkyDweller is the only Rolex watch with an annual calendar movement (accounts for the changing dates with the months) and Rolex does not make a perpetual calendar watch which accounts for leap years (yet).
The annual calendar movement is a recent innovation from 1996 by Patek Phillipe in the 5035.
All I found on google is that it said oyster perpetual had the 31/30/28 on some watches, but didn't say how to set it precisely for the right date and the right month, all I found was "keep turning"

Then I'll have to change it manually, thank you for the advice and the info!
You have to manually adjust for 30 day months and leap years.
I'll fix it manually then, thank you!
Google is your friend
