Patek Philippe

As some of you may know, I acquired a 5212 from my AD few days ago. Handsome lovely watch of course! Yet to my surprise, I noticed that the date window jumps at around 11:53pm while the day indicator jumps at 1:22am. I wondering if any 5212 owners at WPS ...  

The date moves forward just before mid night. The day and week indicators don't "jump" and they advance semi - instantaneously is discreet steps. This is to avoid energy consumption peaks. The day indicator of my watch start to move forward around 00:30 a... 

Sorry I shouldn’t used the word “jump”. So the fact that the day indicator finishes its task at around 1:30am maybe the norm? I’m a bit surprised that it takes it so long to get the job done though. Once again thanks for your input!

And the week of the year hand only 6.792452830188679 degrees! I suspect it takes the movement a long time to calculate the rotation or measure the distance those hands are traveling... 😉 Cazalea

All black polished! Though I imagine the movement has trouble reading it at the wrong angle.

Working as intended Title fixed

5208, 5207 and 6300 have instantaneous perpetual calendars.

I received mine in December 2019 (one of the first ones). It has been returned to Geneva and I too am disappointed. Your issue does not surprise me., Having a watch with 5 needles originating from the middle was perhaps not the best idea.

I would have thought that any issues should have been ironed out during the testing stage.

They need to get rid of one or two hands!!
