My two obsessions

 
 By: Market Top : May 3rd, 2012-09:06
5396G purchased less than a week ago – love it so far. Sorry for the blurry iPhone pic. My first PP so have one question for the more experienced. My jeweler set the watch on 4/27 – on May 1 the day correctly adjusted from the 30 th to the 1 st but the mo...  

The month can get stuck on these models...

The month can get stuck on these models unfortunately. The funny thing is that if you manually turn the crown the month doesn't seem to get stuck, which causes even greater confusion for the repairman servicing the watch. You will likely have to send your... 

Thanks for the information

...but it will be very hard to part with this watch for a while! I'll just move it myself for the time being - not ideal but cant imagine sending it to NYC in the near future. I wonder what the turnaround time would be on a fix like this?

The same happened to me with my 5205G

Don't worry about it. All I did was make sure, by use of the pushers that the months all changed. Then I manually set the watch to last day of the month that it didn't change in and let it change naturally. It worked perfectly and has done ever since. Reg... 

Congratulations on a beautiful pair !

You're fortunate!

Yours corrected on its own. I've seen a 5396R and a 5205G that just would not advance properly anymore.

The month can get stuck?

Quality!!

No nice way to put it.

 
 By: patrick_y : May 4th, 2012-09:18
I've seen a 5396R and a 5205G with this problem in the past 18 months; the month got stuck when the watch was in the winder or on the wrist, the month would not turn over. However, the month would turn over if you pulled out the crown and manually advance... 

No need to worry

I experienced these on both of my PP annual calendar, 5960 and 5726. I bought both on the same AD and I assume the technician who set up both is the same guy. The month ring didnt change at the end of the month on the 1st time. On 5960, after I myself adj... 

So far so good ...

No issue yet on my 5205g. Still keeping my fingers crossed. Love your twin obsessions !

Have you payed attention to the 24h dial ...? Passion can blur the mind ...

 
 By: COUNT DE MONET : May 4th, 2012-08:09
But not in your case: congrats on a very, very fine Patek annual calendar. The WG version is also quite sporty-elegant , as your car is. Enjoy Moritz

You know, thats a good point

 
 By: Market Top : May 4th, 2012-09:32
and it would be like me to miss that. But as you said, not in this case. Its funny, what got me going down this path in the first place - I bought a JLC Reverso with a 24h hand on the second face that somehow went out of sinc. So while they were getting m... 

Very nice obsessions!! [nt]

Very interesting

 
 By: Le Monde Edmond : May 5th, 2012-12:13
Dear Market Top, So we have similar obsessions! I find it unusual that you would chose Lamborghini! But thats what makes it interesting. The stereotype PP owner I would assume drives around in a Aston Martin or Bentley or even Mercedes but not Lambo or Fe... 

It funny

 
 By: Market Top : May 22nd, 2012-17:32
I've had Astons and Mercedes (never Bentley for some reason). Porsche too. But for some reason I have an affinity for the raw power of the Lambo. Which of course is in contrast to the refined movement of the Patek.

mine solved after reset

 
 By: serali : May 24th, 2012-08:12
Makert, I reported similar issue to my dealer, and he sent me a reset instruction from PP. I followed this instruction, and solved the issue. I shared this with you, and hope it works for yours as well. reset instruction...  

Thank you very much!! [nt]
