Watch Stops
Wife bought me a new from AD 14060M Dec 2011 (50th Birthday) Last fall sent it for service as I found it was running fast and power reserve was about 24 hours, it was returned saying adjustments had been made. Last week after giving it a full 40 winds as it had sitting a few days it ran about 14 hours and stopped (gentle shake, nothing) Full wind again 10:30 am, wore it all day and stopped 5:30 next morning. Kept it on my wrist all day, not wound (active day) until I dropped it off for service. Still dead. Thoughts?

It can be as simple as a loose screw... It can be much more complex too... it's difficult to analyze a movement without actually seeing it...

I hear you, and I understand. I see thus kind of problem almost every day, and it's hardly ever the same problem...

Repaired, loose jewel caused by what they believe was a blow. Upon return the dealer asked if I might have banged it. I told them I wear it all the time and beat the hell out of it. They just smiled and told me to enjoy the watch .... Only fear now is how careful I need to be with it .
