Help needed concerning my Squadra

Hi there,

I hope some of the enlightened members of the board could help with my problem.

My JLC Squadra hometime appears to lose all its power over a 90min period.

Initially I wind it up, just a couple of turns then wear it over a period of 5 hours. When I took my watch off to go to the gym and having returned back after 90 mins, the watch has stopped.

Do you think it needs to go back to JLC for a look or have I broken it. The rotor etc appears to be ok, winding/spinning ok.

Thanks

Sean

That happened to me with one of my SQ HT. Don’t know what kind of work you have but I sit behind a desk all day. Not a lot of movement, so I think like Nicolas and Bob suggested give it a few more turns. I have started to do that, never had any more troub...

Thanks guys for the responses, I didn't give it 50-100 turns when I first got the watch as the instruction manuel said to turn a couple of time and then wear it. I have wound it now to approx 60 turns and will see if that makes a difference. Now I need to...

No sync between the two hour hands?!

By: blomman Mr Blue : August 26th, 2010-12:22

Do you mean that they don’t go on top of each other or that they don’t move in the same rhythm, separated by whole hours? The offset function of the second hour hand is when you pull the crown out one step (normally date), two steps and you se...
