Troubleshooting
Watch stopped working
Manually wind the watch. If it is an automatic watch, it may need to be worn regularly to keep it powered. If the issue persists, consult a professional.
Date not changing correctly
Ensure the time is not between 9 PM and 3 AM when setting the date, as this can damage the movement. Reset the time and date following the correct procedure.
Difficulty screwing down the crown
Ensure the crown is properly aligned before attempting to screw it down. If it feels cross-threaded, do not force it; seek professional assistance to avoid damage.
Condensation under the crystal
This indicates a potential breach in water resistance. Immediately avoid further water exposure and have the watch inspected by a qualified watchmaker.
