Patek Philippe 240 movement disassembled comparison

[CTime]

Hello, everyone

This time I bought the mini version of the original 5712 -- 5015 (the old version) at a huge cost. They have the same movement, the difference is that there is no PP engraving on the 5015 movement, and the end of the minute hand is not bronzed. The new 5712 minute hand has a bronze top.

The 240 is a relatively complex and basic movement with many models in use. For example, 6102p/6104g for $400,000 or 6000g/6000r for $20,000 are different only in function modules.

The display functions of this movement are: hour hand, independent small second hand, pointer calendar, moon phase, power reserve

But 5327, for example, would be: hour hand, quarter, month, date, moon phase and am/pm. That is, we say the perpetual calendar function, automatically adjust the difference of the month and so on... I won't go through them all today.

The 240 movement on the 5712 is the only multifunctional movement with a 1:1 modeling after the 324 movement. By disassembling and comparing them, we can see that the quality of this movement is very good. But I think the price is rather high. Of course, this is the decision of the movement factory and the watch factory, we can't control it.

 

 

Thank you for watching
