Two of my Pateks on don't like winders ...
I own multiple Patek's, 2 of which (5085 & 5036) I keep on Orbita Bellino winders. For whatever reason, they always lose time while on the winders which, by the way, are calibrated properly. Should I wear one continously for a week, it runs with precision.
I know what the common response will be ... wear them! However, God only blessed me with 2 wrists yet cursed me with an amazing appetite for wrist watches!
Is it common for Pateks not to "behave" while being placed on a winder at length?

I have a 5085 and put it on the Oribita Bellino (the model) winder and the pr will gain a little each day when on the suggested setting. My guess would be it would take about 2 weeks from near zero pr to wind fully. By the way, what do you think of the 50...
