Quartz battery service

[Michael T]

Wouldn’t you know it as soon as I get back my Calatrava from a COA at Henri Stern, my wife’s 5067A stopped. Likely a battery. A little disappointed that it only lasted 26 months from new. I sent in in yesterday to Henri Stern. Any guess on turnaround, if it is just the battery.

I would go, wait for my watch while they change the battery, get my watch back, pay for the service and leave. Should take 15 minutes.

Watch batteries do not last long. 26 months seems reasonable.

The problem is finding someone to look at a Patek quartz watch and making sure it is just the battery. For an older Aquanaut, it make require a full service and that is what HSWA will likely recommend.

I get batteries for my Rolex Oysterquartz models replaced at Rolex in Wynn’s Las Vegas. They last 5-6 years.

The oyster quartz battery is huge, my patek uses a 371 battery and it’s about the third of the thickness

My 19018 battery lasts about 3 years.

I wonder if the day function uses a bit more?

The problem is the AD here is not authorized and I not going to be in NYC anytime soon.
