I can also see some have an interest in the outcome, I don't epect a reply though after all my £23,000 purchase is probably not important to them. I will update the thread good or bad if or when I hear from them.
I also mentioned my 5167A which broke the wrong side of the 2 year warranty period, hopefully that may help to get the rust looked at. I'm reluctant to get it fixed as I read they just strip it down, clean it and put it back together so it will probably just stop winding again.
Sometime's I wish I just stuck with Rolex and Omega they have always been no trouble.  |
Not sure how you come to your conclusions.
In my experience,
Patek has resolved several issues I have brought to them better than expected.
I would give them the time they need to review (things can move slowly with Patek.)
Rolex on the other hand could not have a worse track record if they tried, RSC has fixed one issue and created another ireperable problem; has charged me for a repair they did NOT complete; has not stood by their product and for the most part has been careless and carefree.
