Fiddy problem....

[Samurai]

My DSN Fiddy with Swiss E had some problems so sent it back to him. He replaced the movement and I got back the Fiddy yesterday.

Noticed that the movement stops @ around 12.20 mark. When I move the hands a bit....it starts working and then stops again when it's 12.20.

Any idea on what could be the problem....and are such problems common with new Swiss E movements? I am still debating whether to send this back to DSN yet again or if its something simple....get it fixed locally.

Any inputs will be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Its almost certainly dirt inside the movement somewhere. It only takes the tiniest spec to jamb a cog. Its probably best not to force the movement past this. What feels gentle to you could be doing damage inside.

I guess you can try opening a dialogue with DSN.....

I will however just send it to a local watchsmith. Sending it back could mean going for months without your treasure timepiece.

DSN responded saying I can send it back or get it repaired locally. I guess I'll take it to my guy in Singapore and have him take a look.

So much for the new Swiss E movement

Maybe it is the hands that touches each other so it stops where the hands meet each other??

Because it stops at the SAME tome every day that CAN absolutely be the problem!!!
