Water Resistance - Patek Philippe 17 SAV PS Mode D'emploi

If you notice that your watch exhibits such irreg-
ularities, please do not hesitate to take it to an
Authorized Patek Philippe Retailer or an Authorized
Service Center where no effort will be spared to
assure that it is adjusted to meet your expectations.

WATER RESISTANCE

Your watch is fitted with different types of seals
to protect the movement against the ingress of
dust and moisture only. Therefore, exercise care to
ensure that liquid does not come into contact with
your watch.
SERVICE
We recommend that you have your watch serviced
every three to five years. With this in mind, we
suggest that you take or send your watch to an
Authorized Patek Philippe Retailer or an Author-
ized Service Center. This gives you the assurance
that your watch will be entrusted to the hands of
a qualified Patek Philippe watchmaker in Geneva
or at an Authorized Service Center.

The watchmaker will completely disassemble the
movement and then inspect, clean, and lubricate
all of the individual parts prior to reassembly. All
functions of the watch will also be tested in detail
and the escapement regulated if necessary. Finally,
its rate accuracy will be monitored and precision-
adjusted for a further period of two weeks. The
entire process may take several weeks because each
watch must undergo a complete series of tests to
fulfill the strict quality criteria of Patek Philippe.
If you have any questions regarding the maintenance
of your watch or need the address of your closest
Authorized Patek Philippe Service Center, contact our
International Customer Service Department in Geneva,
