My 5002 is back in Texas at the Richemont service center. I had my AD talk to the manager at the service center to look after my watch to make sure they correct the problems. I will let you know when I get it back. Should be in a week or two.

These BP movements are really 8 day movements with a mechanism to stop them after 7 days. Since they are automatics, the main spring has a āYā at the outer end that acts as a clutch against the inner circumference of the barrel. It may be that by āover wi...

Thanks Darron
I have my 5002 back from service.
By: Costa (aka Connie) : November 22nd, 2021-23:28

Good luck!
