My 1st Patek - an unexpected journey
So after months (years?) of searching for my ideal watch I decided on a 5164. And I love it. However, a couple of days I was surprised in the dark.... An email and then a visit to my excellent and most helpful AD confirmed that the lume on the '1' of the ...
Can't be wrong with this one, seen on Mr Stern's wrist multiple times...
funny how that lume can escape the QC, maybe lume should be added into a checklist. Good thing all is well now, but should be awesome to keep that original one as a souvenir. Rgds Raymond
Now ways - I would have changed it like you did.
Best, Kari PS. 5164 is really a nice watch. But the red gold version is even nicer even I don't like coloured gold.
Good they straightened it out, BUT in the world did they forget to put the lume on?
It\'s quite troubling given the price point and complexity of what\'s inside the watch.
I'm glad you enjoy it that much
and that you could experience Patek services that well and that fast, even if the missing lume was of course bothering... No, I don't think there is any interest to keep the old dial. At least, I don't see one. Have a nice time wearing it! Cheers, Mark
congratulations for your first Patek..
an amazing watch !! I am sure that it will serve you well and give you a lot pleasant memories. Glad to hear that the service was very efficient. Well done for your fist one..an excellent choice with a very practical combination. Christian
Glad to hear that you are so in love with your acquisition...however

Congratulations on your 5164.
I would've changed out the dial. Wear it well. Aloha, Bob
A forgotten lumen is not an attractive dial irriatation that a collector is finding good
Congratulations. You have got yourself one of the most useful and nice looking travel watches on the market. Best Moritz
Congrats and welcome to the Patek forum! You have a lovely and very...
functional watch! Glad to hear that you problem was handled professionally and quickly , just like what the Patek way should be. Enjoy this reference! Cheers Gordon
Hmmm...
A missing lume on a brand new watch! Quick fixing by Patek, good on them. It would have troubled me though. Enjoy the beauty of this watch.
