Patek Philippe

Hi eveybody, I have been receiving PMs from people from the forum complaining about 2 main problems with the 5167A. First, people have told me that even though the 324 movement may be accurate, some consumers have had to get the watch back to the store fo...

...plus PP can always service the timepiece back to brand new condition.
