I purchased a new 15400 from an AP boutique and followed the instructions on the AP website to set it up. However, the seconds hand moves for about 5-30 seconds and then stops. Has anybody else had a similar issue and know of a fix?

I am coincidentally in London and Paris this week so will try to stop by a boutique in one of those cities if I can’t solve it.

Thanks in advance for any guidance!

Stupid question, but is it fully wound and have you pushed the crown back in / screwed it down?

SSA · 22 October 2018, 09:19 AM

Yes would it 30 turns and also screwed crown back in.

If it’s fully wound then it may be a mechanical issue and worth popping into a boutique with.

You are correct in thinking AP have more issues than they should for a watch this price but the important part is they take care of the issues fast and free and offer a 5 year warranty on all new watches.

I’ll take that combined with the quality of the product all day over other brands that don’t stand behind their product or offer shorter warranty periods combined with suspect service centers.

Just my opinion
