BadApple 13,081 Posted October 25, 2020 Maybe it has malfunctioned? Try removing the crown and re-inserting..... no need to take movement out of watch - just use rubber ball back remover. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2QWt9pgsfA4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Foxindebox 464 Posted October 25, 2020 Sounds like the Keyless work needs resetting, yoke might have come lose from sliding pinion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What movement is it running? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

THIS ^^^^^ Plus you didn't even write which kind of movement there's in the watch. Plus it can be a fucked up crown and nothing in the movement. Or even an unscrewed stem in the crown. I really can't get why people pretend informations when they firstly cannot give all the details that are needed to whom they ask... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AcousticNRG 0 Posted October 26, 2020 sorry its a 2824 movement here is the pictures of it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GenTLe 1,501 Posted October 26, 2020 Ah, ok, so it came out completely. Well It's not a big deal of a job on a 2824, it can also be done from the back of the watch without removing the hands/dial, if you know how and it simply needs a reset. But if you never worked on a movement, don't have the proper tools (like 1.2mm screwdrivers, ultrafine tweezers and so on), it's better to ask someone more expert to fix it. It's let's say a 30min job, if all goes well. And 1.5h job if not and requires dial removal. I don't know where you are from, but you can check in the TD section for the trusted watch techs or trying politely to ask @ROLIE in UK if he has time and willing to do that.
