    I dont what happend and I'm now wondering how this can happen ,but the year
    display shows now 2119.

    The clock was running all the time ( 2002- until today) and I guess the jump
    from 2019 to 2119 happens in the last month.

    Did anybody got an idea what happend or has seen the same issue.

    Regards Frank

    Hello Franka - has your watch been serviced since 2002? If not, it could be
    that lubrications have dried and things are starting to stick. A complete
    service will have it taken apart, cleaned and rebuilt like new.

    Hello Ben

    thank you for the answer.

    Yes, the watch wasr send for a complete service to IWC Munichin 05/2012 .And
    you are right, came back like new,but i had send it a second time to IWC in
    2013, for a small warranty issue.

    in general your comment is right : lubrications have dried and things are
    starting to stick,but in this case the year display was jumping in the middel
    of the year,that means that something was working, not sticking and moved the
    calender by 100 years.
