OK, so I was one of those that couldn't resist buying a daytona knowing that it would most likely be a time bomb. I know that the movement they use is not ideal due to the running seconds at 6, and this will always be an issue until a different movement is used. Here is what I am seeing; I've worn the watch on and off for the last couple of years. Lately the watch will run for a minute, and then it will consistently stop when the second hand reaches the 10 second mark, and won't move unless I shake the watch a bit to get things going again. So my question is this - is this pretty much the expected symptom of a daytona that is on its way to the trash bin, or is this possibly a different issue that could be fixed in some way? I'm not sure what the exact symptoms are of a dead daytona versus an issue that may affect the watch and can possibly be fixed. If it turns out it's yet another dead daytona, are there any other options at this point besides throwing it away? Looking forward to your responses. WR
