Dear all,

Hope you can help me out. I just received my 5711 PPF. However, the automatic movement is stuck and won’t turn properly to wind the watch. Someone has this as well? Is there any solution?

Thanks.

remember the Miyota is Single Direction movement... (clockwise from the front as I remember)

btw, if is still not run, the best bet it to bring it to a watch marker due to shock-shipping problem...

69 pages into reading, and am still as confused as ever if the v2 blue is good or not when compared to the new model

Its a beauty! But i dont like the hands, they look flat and pinion is big, gen is more like 3D effekt, maybe its just the angel of the photo so dont take my Word for it, but my first thought when i see your gen/rep pics.

Not the same model, the one on the right is a pre 2018 without the boxed Patek logo, while the PPF is the most recent model. You are comparing 2 different dials so of course they would be different
Yes, you're right, in this photo both are gen. Dial colour is far apart.

Clockwise is correct, the Gen is counter clockwise by the way. JSSL if the rotor is stuck, means it wil not turn in any direction, the movement will not wind. A watchmaker is required to solve this problem. If the rotor is not stuck, it wil only wind the watch when it turns in the clockwise direction.

My MKF rotor has been silenced, but now when I wear the watch the whole day (office work) it is not enough (not long enough on the wrist) to stay winded, so in the early morning the watch stops. My watchmaker is thinking about this problem seeking a way to a solution. He wil by the way, for he is the best :)

I dip In And out of this thread and the v1, still discussing Dial colour!

This pic Just to Adds to My confusion. I’d take any blue dial it seems. As long as it is well printed and the watch is well built and finished (which I thought the PPF white I had was), when compared to the mkf and Pf that passed my hands, it was better. only my opinion though.

Yes it can run if I shake it hard. Especially, it seems to stuck on a specific point. So it seems it is too tight in that case...
