My new APROO stops every night


Recommended Posts

Posted

Dear members,

I got a new APROO Navy from Angus this week. I had it on my wrist for the last 2 days. The watch runs fine and accurate .... the only problem: it stops every night at 3:50am.

First thought was: Power-Reserve too low....but this make the watch stop exactly at the same time? No!

So I wonder if this is a common error and if it can be fixed by a movement overhaul?

Can the WIS chime in please.....like to know of The Zigmeister ever did one of these sec@12 movement-overhauls.

Thanks for your help

Its either the hour hand hitting something on the dial, or the hour wheel has some dirt of grit in one of the teeth. It'll be a fairly easy fix.. but one that does require at least a partial movement strip.

Thanks for your advice guys....I chatted with my dealer and we decided to give the watch 2 more nights and we like to see if this issue remains.

If still stopping I will send it back to him for a movement change :cry:

could be something in the date mech that is stopping it, if it was hands touching or dirt on the hour wheel it would stop at 1550 in the afternoon as well.

to check set the watch forward 12 hours so the date starts changing around 11 am and then see if the watch stops in the afternoon.
