Tudor stopped overnight

Hi all,

I bought Tudor on eBay, it is my ever first Rolex/Tudor watch, it initially was going well overnight interval but from last week it get stopped during night, the owner had a service before selling and it seems pretty clean and in good condition, I would require your opinion about possible solution for this issue?

I am attaching pictures here:



Regards,

Nayyar

Give it a full wind of 40 turns to determine the power reserve. It might be you were not active enough to wind it while worn.

The power reserve on my Tudor seems low - its stopped recently after perhaps 15 hours of being idle. Does it just need a manual wind?

Yes. If you don't wear it for a day or two, give it a 20-40 manual winds before putting it on. If you are not active enough you're movement alone will not be enough to 'recharge' the mechanism that has been winding down for a day or two.
If you wear it every day it shouldn't be an issue.

typical if you have been relatively inactive. Your watch will only wind itself with sufficient wrist activity .
