AP diver rotor frozen

Recommended Posts

Hi folks,

 

Received a JF V8 diver today and the rotor is frozen and does not move at all.

I am presuming this is not correct and wondered if there was any quick fix I could do myself or if it's a matter of sending back to be serviced?

 

Thank you in advance as always.

Try not to send it back. Bring it to a local watch smith and they can fix it for you. Not worth sending all the way back to china.

+1 should be an easy fix

The movement itself is working fine it's purely the rotor that's frozen. Seems like it just needs loosening up to move freely but I don't know if it would mess things up with the watch.

Do you think just up screw the case back and have a look myself? The time keeping element is working fine the rotor is purely for show by the looks of things.
