TomH on this board did this for me on a Daytona. Didn't work.

I am sorry to hear that. Really.

But, no offense to TomH, I wonder if your watch may have other issues & did TomH follow the proper procedure?

Again, the powdered graphite treats ONLY the friction/drag caused by the additional secs at 6 gearing & most of these movements come from the factory in an unserviced condition, with many other potential issues that can cause the movement to fail. Since none of the dozen or so other watches that have been treated have failed, you have to consider the possibility that your watch may have other problems.

At this point, I think there is more than enough evidence proving powdered graphite as an effective treatment. But, to the best of my knowledge, we still have not had a freshly overhauled movement treated by a reliable watchmaker. So you might consider contacting Ziggy to see if he would be willing to service your watch.
