AP RO vs Patek Nautilus
I would like a real comparison between the AP 3120 and the Patek 324. Nautilus 5711 vs AP RO 15400.The AP 3120 has 40 Jewels and 60 hour power reserve. The Patek has 29 Jewels and 45 hour power reserve and non hacking. Can we compare the + and - of these movements, jewels, balance bridges, shock systems, power reserve, accuracy, etc? In terms of negatives I've heard of the 3120 having rebanking issues and the 324 having date change issues. What else are possible issues with these movements.
