Minute Repeater
The strike sequence of the minute repeater
must be allowed to end completely before it
is activated again.
Caution: Never actuate the winding crown
as long as the repeater is working and for
30 seconds thereafter. Doing so could cause
damage to the repeating mechanism which
would not be covered by the warranty.
To activate the striking mechanism, push the slide
(8) all the way up. Now release it completely – do
not pull it down! Two small hammers will now
strike the hours, quarter-hours, and minutes on
two gongs of low and high pitch.
If the watch was set aside unwound for an exten-
ded period of time, the minute repeater might
not indicate the correct time because the oil may
have thickened at some points inside the mecha-
nism. This is absolutely normal and has no nega-
tive consequences. The striking mechanism will
function correctly again within one or two hours
after the watch has been rewound.
Recommendations
wATER RESISTANCE
Although your watch is equipped with a water-
resistant crown and a sealed case back, it is not
protected at all against the ingress of moisture
because of the slot for the minute repeater slide.
Therefore, exercise care to ensure that liquid does
not come into contact with your watch.
SERvICE
We recommend that you have your watch ser-
viced at least once every three to five years. For
this purpose, we suggest you take it to an Au-
thorized Patek Philippe Retailer who will send
it to our Geneva manufacture, the only location
authorized to service watches with minute re-
peaters. You can then be assured that your watch
will be inspected and overhauled by a qualified
master watchmaker at Patek Philippe headquar-
ters in Geneva.
The master watchmaker will completely disas-
semble the movement and then inspect, clean,
and lubricate all the individual parts prior to re-
assembly. All functions of the watch will also be
tested in detail and the escapement regulated if
necessary. Finally, its rate accuracy will be moni-
tored and precision-adjusted for a further period
of at least two weeks.
The case and the buckle will be polished as per
your instructions and your watch will be returned
to you in mint condition. The entire process will
take several weeks because each watch must un-
dergo 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, contact the Authorized Patek Philippe Retailer
nearest you or our International Customer Service depart-
ment in Geneva, or visit www.patek.com.
wINDING
When fully wound, your wristwatch has a power
reserve of at least 38 hours. We recommend that
you wind your watch at about the same time every
day.

Movement technical data
We advise you to wind the watch before you put
it on. This way, you can avoid lateral pressure on
the winding stem which, in the course of the ye-
ars, could damage the stem tube.
The same applies to handsetting. Please use your
fingernails to pull the crown out and turn it gently
between two fingertips.
CHANGING THE CASE bACk
Your watch comes with a sapphire-crystal case back
and a interchangeable solid metal back. Only qualified
master watchmakers at the Patek Philippe workshops
in Geneva are authorized to exchange the backs.
PATEk PHILIPPE SEAL
The Patek Philippe Seal is a global emblem of quality
that applies to the completed and fully cased watch. It
covers the movement, the case, the dial, the hands, the
pushers, the straps and bracelets, the clasps, as well as all
other components that contribute to the accuracy and
aesthetic appeal of a watch. It takes technical, functional,
and design-related aspects into account and also covers
the visual appearance of the watch, its rate accuracy and
dependability, as well as the quality of the customer ser-
vice to which its owner is entitled. It encompasses the
entire know-how and the unique facets that govern the
development, production, and long-term maintenance
of an exceptional timepiece.
