water resistance
Your watch is fitted with different types of seals
to protect the movement against the ingress of
dust and moisture and to prevent damage if it is
immersed in water. Nonetheless, we recommend
that you prevent direct contact with water if your
watch has a leather strap.
service
We recommend that you have your watch ser­
viced every three to five years. The best way to do
this is to bring your watch to an Authorized Patek
Philippe Retailer who will be happy to forward it
to our workshops for you. You can then be assured
that your watch will be inspected and overhauled
by a qualified master watchmaker at Patek Philippe
headquarters in Geneva.
The watchmaker will completely disassemble the
movement and then inspect, clean, and lubricate
all 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.
