Asian SOSF stopped

[grantyboy_72]

Had my asian SOSF for 2 weeks, working great, keeping good time till this morning. Stopped at 9.30.

Been wearing it daily since it arrived. I suppose it could be a number of things but any suggestions as to what the problem might be from someone who has had this problem would be greatly appreciated. Tried winding it forward 48hrs, no joy. The rotor is free moving so I imagine it has a good power reserve.

Please help.

Have you wound it by hand??? The rotor might be spinning but not actually winding.

Thanks for the reply. Haven't tried that yet.

During my lunch I loosened the case back slightly and hey presto it started working again

Will keep an eye on it and if it happens again will try hand winding it. Failing that I might try a movement replacement.

Feeling quite confident after reading a few posts with pictorials. I have heard it is a straight swap if I use a miyota 8215 which I have read

is a really good movement.

Thanks again.
