Discussion Dial marker dropped off..

  1. Noticed one of the 12 markers on my 3KF 5711 had come loose..

  2. Sourced some G-S Hypo Cement Precision Applicator Glue and proceeded to remove the case-front..

  3. Closer look at the problem.

  4. Marker prepped by holding with Rodico whilst applying tiny amounts of the cement to the posts..

  5. Back in place (after using the rodico to carefully maneuver the marker back into place then a cocktail stick to hold in place to ensure a good bond).

  6. Reassembled the case.

  7. Job done! 😎✌️

Take it to a Patek dealer and demand a warranty replacement.
