Patek Philippe

Hi guys, for some reason the 5070 chronograph second hand jumps half a second whenever you push the button, anyone else having the same problem please advice thanks

I know that you are in love with the 5070 and that is absolutely understandable. But objectively speaking: not every chrono does it. I do not know if it is a property of all 5070. Not to say that it is a bad chrono, but the latest PP auto / manual chrono ... 

... that it kind off slows for a 1/2 second. Doesn't jump on mine anyway.

I must agree not all chronos, my 3970, 5970, Datograph, ap chrono didnt seem to have the same problem, I was told it's the same movement as of the speedmaster correct me if I'm wrong. Hope I'm wrong hahaha :S

have the same movement as the 5070 ( same chrono caliber ofcourse plus the perpetual) Base movement is a lemania which we find indeed in some speedmasters but Patek changed it 95% and upgraded it by more or les 10000000000000000000000000000000000000000000... 

.. at the time, only made the BASE PLATE not the movement and it was made exclusively for patek. Patek made everything else... so i've heard.

i spoke to some people and reread amanicos post on the 5070 and it was an ebauche made by lemania.... i was misinformed!... it wasnt just the baseplate!! my world has been shattered.. lol

IMHO there should be no jump as it is column wheel controlled vs. cam control found in a eg.7750.But even 7750 's behaves differently as they are finished differently by different brands.

I am on the travel and cannot try it out. However, I do not recall any jump as what you mentioned in both my VC and PP that use same base movement. Strange!!
