Do you know the famous song "Love Story"....

The lyrics start with: "Where do I begin...."

Many members of the Purists are familiar with the issues I have faced with my 5960.
To answer your question first: No I didnt have the same problem. But...

The Summary would be;
On day, My 5960 has stopped functioning. The AD said it would take 6 months, came back in 4,5.
This was in January.

UPdate:
Few weeks ago, I was taking my watch off. I pulled it out of my wrist and holding it with my right hand.
All of a sudden it slipped my hand and fell on the floor(hardwood). The height was about 32 inches(81 cm).
I saw the watch falling face angled about 45 degrees. It seemed like, the platinum frame was going to take the first hit.
The same second, I heard "POOOFFF".
There were only few tiny pieces are left of the crystal on the floor and the rest was a dust.
There was no crystal left on the watch.

The next day I took back to the AD. First, I didn't tell what happened; they couldn't either.
Nothing happened to the dial TG, except crystal dust which needs to be cleaned but they might have to open everything to make sure nothing
slipped inside the movement.

Isn't amazing, a watch like that falls from 80cm and the crystal blows away.

Very very disappointed.
