I like my current method [1], while only requires addition, doubling, and a couple of conditional increments or additions. Even if you don't bother doing any mod 7 reduction along the way, you never have to deal with a number above 32.

With both divide by 12 and odd 11, I would find myself occasionally making a goof when dealing with years near the end of centuries.
