Printing Issue/Mistake or ...? Patek Philippe Dial ref 3940 from 1991
Hi everyone, Last year, I purchased a Patek Philippe Perpetual Calendar reference 3940 from 1991, as stated in the Certificate of Origin (COO). It is a late 2nd Generation dial with a cross-divider on the leap year and month subdial located at 3 o'clock. ...
I am thinking
that may be age related deterioration of the ink. Alternatively, the area of the dial may have been touched be a tool during a service. In any event it is hardly noticeable on such a beautiful watch.
I was actually wondering if it could have been a factory printing mistake
I red on some blogs that the printing technique (stamping) used in the past may left some "blank"space sometimes, although very rare.
You must have very good eyes 😉
I wouldn't do anything. And stop using the magnifier 😉
Once you see a flaw , impossible to unsee
Hits you in the eye every time But that is a lovely watch J
Congratulations on getting such a great watch ! If
it bothers you, then it is worth the money to make your more happy 😃! Thoughts 🤔 ?
I know PP does not want to do dial work.
Their current policy is to only work on the dial if the condition poses a risk of damage to the movement. I just had a watch there.
