Back in late August, I had recognized that the minute repeater was running without engaging the chronograph. The Boston AP Boutique was still closed at the time due to the unfortunate smash-and-grab incident. I finally had the opportunity to visit on Satu...  

I had the same problem recently with my CODE 11.59 chronograph, which has the same movement I believe. Although my service took longer than yours, the issue was fixed at minimal inconvenience. Love the looks of your Offshore. M4

Happy to hear we both had minimal inconveniences. I’ve seen some horror stories regarding other brands. Quite pleased with this service experience.👍 Thanks, M4! Have a great week!🥂

They handle everything from the initial inquiry, and in my experiences, things are returned as expected the first time. You are going to have a lot of cool pieces fighting for your wrist time these days!!

Granted, it would be great if these issues never occurred in the first place. But I was aware of this possibility and consider this inconvenience to be part of the overall collection journey experience! Without a doubt, Michael, I’m quite fortunate to be ... 

For me the question remains how this is possible for a brand like AP? M4 seems to have had the same problem. So it's not an isolated case. All the best Thomas

I mean you didn’t have this issue when you first received the piece, correct? So it may depend how often someone wears theirs and when it may manifest. Or are there some pieces that will never have this happen?🤔 It’s a bit annoying to keep wondering if th... 

My pieces is covered under warranty until March 2028. Hopefully, it doesn’t repeat itself. I have not seen people reporting the issue multiple times. But I’m covered for quite a while. Have a great week!🥂

I was thinking about someone like me or Michael who haven’t noticed this issue…might it manifest for the first time but at a later date?? II know no one can say for sure with such things, so it is what it is. But I do want to put mine in more of a regular... 

Love it!

All the best, Jon

This issue is so out of hand for them they might as well issue a recall. Scroll the reference number on C24 and see how many you can spot for sale with this same problem, it's crazy!
