DOA 7750 Watch

[vric]

Hi,

I got a new RG IWC St Exupery from River that is DAO.. It's not a complain post (I still wait for a reply, but it's only been 2 days) but more a post of "what's wrong with it"

I'm curious and would like to know.

Movement is 7750 28.8k

The watch don't work at all.

If I try to manually winds it (over 80 turns) nothing happen.

I can feel the friction when I winds.

I can ear the rotor spinning (it's not as loud as my other 7750 through)

The watch actually worked for 20 seconds after I put it on me.. but nothing since then (even if I try to spin the rotor)

So watches expert. What do you think is wrong with it ?

I haven't (and will not) open the cashback to see. There is marks on it (look like they had trouble screwing it at the factory) but that's all.

On a side note, it's my first dead watch in 8... and it had to happen for a friend watch
