such irregularities, please do not hesitate to take
it to an Authorized Patek Philippe Retailer or an
Authorized Service Center where no effort will be
spared to assure that it is adjusted to meet your
expectations.
WATER RESISTANCE
Your watch is fitted with different types of seals and
a screw-down crown (Nautilus men and Aquanaut
models) 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.
It is advisable to have a water-resistance test car-
ried out every year on your watch. This is a simple
procedure that takes only a few minutes at a prop-
erly equipped point of sale.
SERVICE
We recommend that you have your watch serviced
every three to five years. With this in mind, we
suggest that you take or send your watch to an
Authorized Patek Philippe Retailer or an Author-
ized Service Center. This gives you the assurance
that your watch will be entrusted to the hands of
a qualified Patek Philippe watchmaker in Geneva
or at an Authorized Service Center.
The watchmaker will completely disassemble the
movement and then inspect, clean, and lubricate
all of 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.
If you have any questions regarding the maintenance
of your watch or need the address of your closest
Authorized Patek Philippe Service Cente, contact our
International Customer Service Department in Geneva,
