p-lund 0 Posted September 29, 2009 hi ! i have a noobmariner with asian ETA-clone movement, and i wonder how long powerreserve you can expect from it. i tested winding it fully and then didn´t wear it for the whole day, and at 8.30 PM it was dead. is this normal or shouldn´t it run longer even if it´s not worn for a day ? thanks.

greg_r 81 Posted September 29, 2009 You should normally get 30 hours or more - most of my 21js give something around 36 hours PR. It's one of those things that happens occasionally with the asian movements - it may improve with use, however. I have one that works fine while I wear it, but dies pretty quickly when I take it off. Doesn't really bother me as it's only a cheap watch and it's while I'm wearing it that it needs to be running Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KBH 7 Posted September 29, 2009 You may not have had it fully wound. Try wearing it for a day and jerking off every 3 hours, then check the power reserve. Or you could just give it about 40 to 50 slow winds and then set it down and see how long it runs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AllergyDoc 40 Posted September 29, 2009 You may not have had it fully wound. Try wearing it for a day and jerking off every 3 hours, then check the power reserve. I wear my watches on my left hand, and I'm right handed. Will me jerking off still wind my watch? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KBH 7 Posted September 29, 2009 I'm ambidextrous, so I just switch back and forth when one hand get's tired. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
