Q & A : Servicing Panerai Watches

[leeye]

Any bro can advice will it be cheaper to quote someones name for verifying of pam or rolex at JW?
Or the same price applies to all?

Unlikely.

[frichen]

Unlikely.

Ohh cause i have been seeing ppl saying so many different pricing for JW verifying...

[leeye]

There are standard prices on JW website.

Charges for servicing in house movement?

Hi guys. can i check with those who owned pam with inhouse movement serviced before. how much is the cost? does it include polishing as well? thks

[technik]

full service includes polishing. I paid for S$250-ish for my pam 270.

On a slightly related note, is PAM in house movement overrated?
I am probably speaking out of personal frustration. I sent my 312 in to service for 2 complaints:
(1) power reserve did not last 3 days as marketed
(2) date change did not get filly transitioned past midnight (more like 130am onwards unlike my other timepieces)

My bigger complaint:
Upon collection, as the kind lady at Richemont was helping to set date and time for me, then the date mechanism got stuck. Watch has to be taken back in for another service and its at least another 3 weeks.

Btw, you guys can request to pick up the watch at their Ion Panerai boutique so that you need not rush to the service center during lunch time

alot of reported problems with K P9000
heard these were resolved in the L and later series

BTW, if a out of warranty PAM is serviced in Richemont, is a warranty period provided afterwards?

[nimm12]

so cheap? errrr... i tot it was at least 500...

[lfcd66]

I thought so as well. They charge between the range of $700 - $800 iirc..Similar to Rolex..

I just hope that couple of years down the road, outside watchmakers will be able to service panerai's in-house movement...

Hi guys, sorry for hijacking this thread,
If I wish to calibrate my N-series, but warranty booklet UN-dated and UN-named, will ion boutique take my watch? Or I should hand-fill the date myself before sending in?
