As you very well know.....
Inspector Clouseau is not the most intelligent person in the world...
So I doubt it that he would have found a solution ( so I could steal it... lol)
I think that the JLC boutique in Paris has a mashine that can demagnetize a watch....
I will try to find out....
Cheers
Reliability story
Dear All - I have a question about movement and reliability of my Patek Aquanaut: As a regular reader/contributor, it can hardly escape our attention that there have been some issues with this aspect of our favourite watches. But my story is odd, and has ...
Strange
Hi, I don't see what could have happened with your watch. Do you wear it constantly or not? I don't understand what you mean by: " This is an automatic watch and there is presumably a fault of some kind, but I noticed that when screwing in the crown follo...
Magnetized?
Paulus, A sudden and dramatic rate change could be a sign that the movement has been magnetized. If so, it is a quick and simple fix to demagnitize it. Although computer speakers, electronics, and airport devices are frequent suspects, you may never know ...
What is the best way to demagnetize a watch?
Inspector Clouseau, no doubt you have examined this topic. Please, enchant me with your wisdow

The honoured Inspector compensates his lack ...
... of intelligence by having a great instinct and lots of luck. He always stumbles by accident on the right solution. And because I was so impressed by your detective work in the case of BH90210, the impolite fraudster with the double personality, I knew...
Lol....
Very true..... Thank for the compliment... And to think that the fraudster uses the second id as a rereference so he can sell his watches here... Sad.... I will try to find out about how to demagnetize.... HAGWE Cheers
Sad indeed. One should think that the management ...
... of this great site would take the right actions to ban fraudsters. It it just like real life. Only the dumb low lifes go to jail I understand you live in Paris? I hope for you it is Paris, France and not Paris, Texas If so, you should not have any pro...
Ach so. Glücklicherweise kan man in ....
.... Deutschland auch ein tolles Wochenende haben, doch? Ganze Spaß in Paris ist schließlich langweilig, nicht? Oder? Ich wünsche Ihnen ein schönes Wochenende.
I don't think so
Hi, A magnetize watch does not de-magnetize itself AFAIK! And the watch is now apparently working normally. Cheers Dje
Depending on your lifestyle, you may need to manually wind it.
If you have sedentary lifestyle and/or in fornt of a computer and TV most of the time, the watch may not move enough to rewind itself. This is true for all automatic watches. Pateks with 240 (mini-rotors) may be more prone to this issue, not as much with ...
Strange I think not...
...a workmate has just had a replacement 5167 last month because of the same problem, patek tried to fix the first one twice until my friend told them he wanted a replacement, he had bought a rose gold 5711 6 months previous and that also had issues but i...
So, what goes on at Patek?
I think there are several things that contribute to the problems some folks are having. It is disturbing to read, not only issues of this sort, but the number of problems folks are encountering. Because of my loyalty to the brand, I don't want to believe ...
I think you are right..
..I love the brand and had every intention of buying 2 new Pateks this year 1 for everyday wear and 1 for special occasions but after the problems my friend has been having and judging by all the patek free gifts on ebay other people have been having I am...
The higher production numbers...
You are right! It seems that the high production numbers and a not so perfect "final inspection" of these incredible number of watches has caused the problems. Patek obviously risks some "replacement issues" instead of rising their efforts on final qualit...
it seems to be the people who wear...
...their pateks all the time as all of us know most people who buy them only wear them every now and again meaning you would never detect a fault, I am going to go for an automatic vintage calaltrava and maybe a world time from the 1990's instead of new, ...
