    Hi!

    There's something wrong with my IWC5007-10. The power reserve indicator seems
    run too fast than real hours in a day (It's run with x2 speed, not on my
    wrist).

    Is it normally with x2 speed?

    Thank you!

    I have another issue. I have iwc yacht club which was already teo times sent
    to service. The reason is that power reserve never reaches even 48 hours even
    though it should be over 60hrs. Does any one have the same issue?

    for example i am wearing watch every day from 7 am till 6 pm. When i put my
    watch on shelf on friday evening it stops on sunday early morning. Which means
    that the power reserve does not exceed 48 hours. The funny part, IWC service
    wrote that this is normal.

    @BartoszK: depends on how active you are and the movement efficiency. My Big
    Pilot auto winds very very fast and gains >48 hs. power reserve during a day,
    I have a Portuguese Automatic where the power reserve doesn't change at all
    during the day.... Did you wind it manually till full reserve (you can hear
    the clutch make a soft clicking sound when you keep winding) and then see if
    it makes 60 hours? Mine does!

    Regards, Bob

    @TRANHOANGANHVN do you mean that if you in 24hs
    the power reserve needle falls back 2 days? That is not normal so check with
    your dealer I'd advise.

    second time. No changes, it does not go for over 48hrs and it should for 68

    @MR. BOB BUNNIK

    Yeah! The power reserve needle falls back 2 day (7->5) after 24hs.

    Waiting the answer from iwc, already chat with them via fb msg.

    Thank you very much!
