#21 0 Posted January 2, 2013 Well, it stopt working. At first no problems of what so ever! After a month or so the watch would stop. A little slap on the thing and it would run again. Now it has stopped moving at all. I openend up the caseback, it looks fine to me. After a little spin of that golden wheel, it will run. It is fitted wit an Asian 2824-2. Who knows how i can fix the SO with some DIY? Thanks, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HWG 11 Posted January 2, 2013 Yep, sounds like it needs a service. Wiz is a TD in France, though he is not taking on new work at the moment, and 10:10 Watch Repair is in USA, and from my personal experience, does great work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Electron17 0 Posted January 2, 2013 Have you tried winding it manualy? Maybe just needs a manual start up again and wearing every day for a while. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
#21 0 Posted January 2, 2013 I don't understand, a service after maybe two weeks of wearing the watch. But who knows, it might do the trick. I am not going to send the watch overseas for a cleaning. To expensive for a $200 watch. I did wind it op manually, it run for an hour.... I might be looking for a watch doctor in The Netherlands ho is wiling to repair a rep.

HWG 11 Posted January 2, 2013 Well, the movement is Asian clone.... they dont spend too much time making sure everything is clean and lubricated properly. Unfortunately, its a part of the hobby. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I might be looking for a watch doctor in The Netherlands ho is wiling to repair a rep. You do know that a automatic watch does still need to be wound manually?
