New noobmariner problem

[mtv2009]

Just got my new noobmariner from Reg and was very pleased with it....

However i sent it back to him as the second hand would stop after wearing it for a while..

So i sent it back to Reg for a fix/repair and he replied that it was running fine and actually had a very good reserve for a noob.

Pleased to have it back i popped it on my wrist only to find that a few minutes later the second hand had stopped again..

After a little head scratching i discovered that it only dies when you hold the watch face down which pretty much renders the watch un-wearable!!

All my other asian 21j dont suffer from this problem and i am waiting on a reply from Reg explaining the problem.

Wanted to know if any other members have had this problem at all and is there anything i can do myself to rectify it,bearing in mind i have never taken the back off a watch before (so no techie stuff please)

Any help/advise appreciated.

Regards.

I wouldn't advise touching it as you have no experience as yet. Leave it to Reg to sort out. There are a number of possible causes from a loose hand to a movement fault.

are you winding the watch before wearing it or just putting it on and expecting it to start and keep going?? You need to give it a couple turns to get it going sometimes.. when i have a watch thats completely dead, I give it 5 or 10 turns to get it going... a full winding is 30-40 turns aprox.

yeah,i gave it 30 revs as advised by reg.like i said if you hold it crystal down and look up at it you can actually see the second hand stop.
