Problems with my wife's 4936
My wife has this watch since Christmas of 2006. Since then the watch is mostly sitting on the watch winder. She wore them really just 3 times. The third time was just last month on our european vacation trip. One of the letter piece of roman number 8 (VIII) just suddenly came off the holding place and wondered throughout the movement, sometimes blocking the hour hand and slowing the watch as much as 4 hours a day. We discovered that after 2 days of doing it. Now the loose piece is sitting in the 6 o clock date window and I am affraid it will fell into movement and damage it. (of course she stopped wearing the watch immediatelly) Yes, the watch is out of warranty from Patek Phillipe, but is this really my wearing habits problem? How can this happen with this really expensive watch? Quality control failure? My other Patek 5059 was in service last year, all of the sudden started loosing 2 to 6 hours a day. No reason at all.
