We have assumed Anna has an automatic. Is this watch an automatic (and says automatic on the face)? All ladies Constellations except three autos are quartz.

If it is a quartz, the movement will probably simply be replaced when serviced. If it is a quartz, take it in immediately. It won't improve with time.
