26400ti with 10/15 min of power reserve

Hi all.

Pull my 26400ti out of the drawer to wear it last weekend and noticed that something is wrong...

Altough I fully wind it, the watch stops within 10 to 15 minutes if it is not on a moving wrist. I don't know what is going on. The watch never felt on the ground and I never hit it anywhere...

Any inputs. I'm taking it to Porto Ad to get it fixed.

Same thing happened to mine. APSC fixed it under warranty. The DD modular chrono isn’t known for its reliability but AP is known for good service.

How long does it takes to fix it?

I had the same problem with mine !! I am in Canada and sent in to the APSC in Ottawa under warranty. From the day I couriered it in to when it was back on my wrist was 25days. Was very happy about the turn around time. Not so happy that it happened to begin with. They didnt give nor did I ask for what happened, just got the paperwork back stating warranty work.

I really just don't get why they keep making the same mistake in a high end pricey watch...

Wondering the same thing. This can’t be a long term issue since they have been using the modular movement since 1993. My J series ROO has this issue but all my previous ROOs with the 3126 movement didn’t. Wonder if they changed something or just a lack of quality control.

Increased production is probably to blame — much like we saw with Patek not that long ago, who realised they needed to reign themselves in.
