 By: happymsp : November 5th, 2019-02:42
Has anyone with your annual calendar PP ever came across this rare phenomenon? The watch was purchased new from PP Salon in March 2018, since then, it has jumped forward by one month, on three separate occasions, and I honestly don't know which day of the...

Was the watch in continuous use or on a winder all the time while this happened, or did the power sometimes run down and it stopped and you had to reset the date/time again manually?

I have been contacted by PP Salon, to deliver the watch back to them for a detail examination to find out the cause and rectify the problem. Which means I have to personally deliver the piece, another long haul holiday trip planning for 2020, I guess they...
