Gillesss Posted May 16, 2018 Report Share Posted May 16, 2018 (edited) Recently got this new gmt-mster 2 from toro but the movement keeps stopping at 56s. It will easily get going again but it does not keep accurate time. I haven’t had it a full month. Do I send it back to china or are there some EU watchsmiths that can fix this?

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkThe second hand is probably contacting the crystal at that spot, a pretty easy fix - go local for sure.

Otherwise, pick a local Indy guy and just ask, the worst they can do is say "no". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TAG Heuer Posted May 16, 2018 Report Share Posted May 16, 2018 You can try @SSTEEL. He's located in Finland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
altesporsche Posted June 8, 2018 Report Share Posted June 8, 2018 Open it up, take out the stem and remove the movement/dial and just slightly press the second hand in or if it tips up slightly bend it down close to the minute hand tip. Reassemble it all and bob is your uncle :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmb Posted June 14, 2018 Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 I have had a speck of dirt between a couple teeth on the second wheel cause this in ETA movement... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mymanmatt Posted June 21, 2018 Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 I don't think you should open it up unless you know what you're doing. You could make things worse. Most likely the second hand is barely touching another hand. I think ssteel is your best bet. He can also ck your movement and time it if need be.
