Pure B 0 Posted October 21, 2014 Hi guys, First of all I am a total noob to watch repairs. I've oiled the rotor once and that's as far as my experience goes. And as a 22 year old student I don't have the funds to send it to Joran or Domi at the moment. The problem is that my AP ROO secs@12 won't start running sometimes. As an example: When I set the time to 1:20PM, then give it a manual wind or 10 and push the crown in, it won't start running. Not a 1:23 , 1:35, 2:45 but at 3:22 it starts running. When the watch is worn daily and it keeps wounded, it runs with no problems. What could this be? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhillyRock 0 Posted October 22, 2014 Search "7750 problems" in the search box. Especially seconds @ 12 You'll get more than an eye full of responses. Hope you haven't eaten breakfast yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JSJ 0 Posted October 22, 2014 Are the hands hitting something? No money is OK. Start learning to fix them yourself and you can have more fun. Save up for some tools. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pure B 0 Posted October 22, 2014 No the hands can move freely. Also when I engage the chronograph when the running seconds hand wont start running the large second hand sets from 0 to 59, so 1 tick backwards and then stops. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GXP 0 Posted November 11, 2014 if the watch runs on your wrist all day, but won't start after 10 or more windings, it can be that the mainspring is broken. the rotor will keep the part of the spring that is still working wound up, but if you wind past that point it will unwind again. I don't say that is the problem, but it might be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

marinamm20 1 Posted November 11, 2014 Sounds to me like the problem with added gears for sec@12 without any juvels, so it is "grinding" metal against metal, and the "engine" is not strong enough to turn the gears ? I had that with a daytona sec@6. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
