Hi,
I have this SMP for almost 6 years. For the first 4~5 years, it always runs slightly fast. In recent years, it starts to lag. Anyway, it is still accurate enough for me. A few days ago I fogot to wear it to work for two days and it stopped when I picked it up. No big deal. Usually I just wind it for a few minutes and wear it and it will go back to life. However, this time it started to show siginificant lag ( ~20 mins in 3~4 hours. I even missed an appointment for this). I re-winded it again for at least 10~15 minutes. It was running and then STOPPED a few hours later.
I noticed that if I shake it a little bit I can hear something "swinging movement" inside. Also, when I winded it, there seems to be some clicking caused by my winding movement. I did not notice there is such clicking before.
I would appreciate any suggestions to get my SMP back to life again. BTW, I got it from internet long ago, which means it is from the gray market. How can I find a good repairing shop to work on my watch.
Much thanks for your help!!
Duke
