Re: Co-axial Seamaster stopping
In Response To: Co-axial Seamaster stopping ()

: I have a seamaster co-axial. It keeps very good time. However, from
: time to time, when i have set it down, it will just stop. It is
: not out of power because when I pick it up, it will start
: running again. The other day, I took it off for a while, and it
: had stopped for about ten minutes. On the watchwinder one day,
: it had even stopped for about an hour. Any suggestions as to why
: this is happening? When running, it does keep very good time.

: Thanks, ARJ

Needs to be looked at. By the way, many times even a nearly completely unwound watch will run when picked up. The balance wheel will start swinging from the motion of being picked up, but will not continue to run after a few seconds.
