X looks like average?

.....thought this deserved its own post. I am very happy to get this 5146J back from service, I haven’t seen it since March.
Looking for some advise. Can someone interpret these timing results. I can get most, but not the past few lines.
Any help appreciated!
Martyn.

D looks like greatest variance i.e. 4.1 to 0.3 and -4.7 to 4.4

A few things have a look at:
- a Genesis Watchmaking YouTube video from Duncan...link
- Section 2.2.4 on page 11 / 14 of this pdf download from Witschi...link
- this little table:
fr en cadran en haut CH dial up DU cadran en bas CB dial down DD 9H 9 o'clock high / haut CD crown down 6H 6 o'clock high / haut CL crown left 3H 3 o'clock high / haut CU crown up 12H 12 o'clock high / haut CR crown right X expected performance D delta – range high to low DVH vertical / horizontal comparison Di difference CH - 6H
Simply a stunning watch.
Must have been a different Martyn also with a 5146! I have a free service for my 5980 which I think needs to be done by next March.
Bit of a back story I’d rather not get into. My experience with Patek is they seem to be meticulous and can take time. In UK my experience is about 12 weeks for my 5146. I read some horror stories in the US about 12 months - never seen that myself.
Personally, if it’s a watch I want to keep but don’t wear every day - I get it serviced every 10 years or so unless the timing goes off or something needs attention. That’s me, anyway.
What do you have?
