I'm not sure I have an issue with my LF
I happened to notice a rattle in this watch when I shake my wrist. I contacted LF. I told him that the Watch performs perfectly well, there’s no problem with the winding and there’s no obvious problems looking through the back of the case. It still makes ...
In this case I think the old saying
"better safe than sorry" wins. If you don't mind being without the watch for a while I think I would send it in.
It was 5-0 in favour of sending it before my vote…
Now you can add one more to make it 6 😉 « Better safe than sorry » so true !
You have our full support dear Tony 😉
It’s a very cool and beautiful watch btw my friend, you will enjoy it a lot when it’s back and you will feel totally secure with it, much better no doubt
I'd be in the 'send it in camp' Tony; but i'll say this. I own four watches with micro-rotors, and the rotors tend to have a quick rattle sound upon their winding which seems to be the norm. May be the case here too....
But best to let them assess it, and report back to you. Beautiful watch!
I have to be the outlier here and I think, if the watch runs well, keep it and observe it for two reasons.
One, the holidays are coming so nobody will touch the watch until next year, second if there is a problem, then the watch will stop and it will be easier to determine the problem. Assuming the watch will still be under warranty... Great looking LF by the ...
+1 for sending it back.
Nothing in the watch case should be making a rattling sound. That would drive me nuts.
I would get rid of the worry and the rattle my friend
I know I could not enjoy the watch otherwise. I hope it all goes to your satisfaction
Here is one more vote for sending it in to be checked.
But I fully understand that you will miss it - this LF is in my eyes one of the most beautiful watches today!
Instead of asking our opinion
it may be an idea to show the watch to an experienced person at a good watch dealer. He may be able to give you a better advice than our forum members, since we have not heard or seen the watch. And if you do sent it in, I would not do it before the Holid...
My experience
My Breguet Marine developed a rattle, but it was performing flawlessly. I did not send it. Eventually a wheel that had been kept in place by the spinning rotor came off its pivot and blocked the rotor, at which point it was obvious what the problem was an...
Does the micro rotor ride on ceramic bearings?
I believe every watch I have owned with ceramic bearings has made more noise when winding that those on metal bearings. I generally would describe this noise as more of a whir than a rattle. I have had one watch develop a loose screw. A Roger Dubuis regul...
Sorry to hear this Dr.
If it were mine, I would send it in. Nice looking watch by the way!
