Re: HELP!!! Problem with my Deville?

Thanks for the response.

When I wound my watch this morning, nothing happened, however, when I shake it (quite a bit), it will maybe run for 15 seconds and stop. its not until about 10 or 1030 when my watch started to run like normal again, and it has not stopped since.

Do you think there may be some parts broken even if its running normal right now? should I wait a couple of days and try it again before I send it in? and finally, if I do wait a couple of days, would it damage my watch more if something is broken?

Thanks in advance!

: If this morning you wound it and shook it but
