After a few months at the HSWA spa
in Manhattan, she’s finally back. I am honestly disappointed that it had to go there after only 2 and 1/2 years and in rotation with a lot of other watches, but that’s how the ball bounces once in a while. Anyway, I’m glad she’s finally back. ...
All of the sudden it started
losing 7 minutes a day. The PP warranty was for 2 years, so 6 months after the warranty expired this started happening. I did keep it on a winder, so maybe it was wear and tear. Still very disappointing to me. Service fee was $1,800 plus tax.
Did they tell you what was wrong?
Did they just do a complete service or did they try to diagnose and resolve the issue?
Nope. PP warranty was for 2 years.
I asked if they would cover it anyway and they were quick to say no. Oh well.
Wow only 2 years seems short for a premium marque
I guess they don't need to increase with so much demand. Great looking watch. Now it's all sorted can forget about and focus on wearing 👍
I thought it was fair!
The post was A-OK in my eyes! Definitely a little sad that the watch failed in around 30 months.
That's too bad...
I'm surprised something went wrong. Most of the time perpetual calendars are generally okay, if they're set correctly at the store - a lot of store employees don't know the specific order on how to set these things and press the buttons in a random sequen...
I bought it brand new from a dealer.
I ordered it from. He delivered to me in a sealed box the way he received it. I set it following the instructions exactly and it worked perfectly for those 2 and. 1/2 years. It actually ran dead on plus/minus 0. I couldn’t believe it. Then out of nowhere ...
Thank you for this!
Ok. So dealer didn't set the date/day/month/leap year. So that variable is gone. Now, when you tell me the watch suddenly went to 7 minutes slow a day, that to me suggests possibly the watch got magnetized. Did you check for magnetization? Did you try to ...
Hmm! Looks like something really went wrong then!
And good job on checking what you could check before sending it in! Bravo! Well done!
After all the trouble and disappointment: it is a lovely watch!
With a black instead of the original brown it looks much better.
I just got it back yesterday, so
will keep my eye on it today. Should have an idea by 4:00pm today central time USA. Ideally though I’ll follow for a week at least.
Mildly infuriating story but it happens sometimes, draw of luck I guess…
but glad that you got it in working order and all tip top, that’s what matters. Hope it still keeps time at 0 seconds as before, please let us know
Follow up: +2 seconds in 24 hours.
That makes me happy. Negative time makes me crazy 😁
:)))
Wonderful time keeping. Hope now you can enjoy your watch without any spa treatment for a very long time 🤞🏼
