Aquanaut 5167 noise
I just took delivery of a beautiful 5167 Aquanaut - just a lovely piece and I'm really impressed with the level of finishing and comfort. My only question about the noise level of the rotor, if makes a fair amount of noise when it is spinning. I assume that is normal on the calibre 324?

Do Nautilus owners experience the same noise? ( As the movements are similar...)
Patek watchmaker told me..
The Patek watchmaker at the London Salon told me not to be concerned about the noise in my 5296 Calatrava. Apparently the new 324's are louder due to the zirconium bearings used in the rotor. He said a lot of people came back concerned about the noise as ...
thanks for explanation
i wondered what they had changed to incur the noise from the previous calibre.
For 5711, Its like a rhythm of a heart beat
and you could also feel the solid weight rotating inside....nice feeling!
Music for me as well
I got so excited the first time I heard my 5711 doing that sound! It`slike music for me as well, but it seems that it makes this noise not wounding, but when it's just rotating. It seems to me that it wounds clockwise, and runs lose counterclockwise, doin...
