ROO 44mm Owners...quick question...

How many winds does it take to achieve full power reserve from when the movement has come to a full stop?

I'm trying to determine if I have an issue before I send it to AP for warrenty service.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers

Well...seems if I answered my own question/concern. I wound it 29 times, set it in the stand and it died after an hour. Super disappointed, so off to the AP SC it goes.

Mainspring’s gone, by the sounds of it.
To be sure, sit with the watch in your hand and rotate your wrist to get the rotor spinning, and do that for a good five minutes or more.
If the watch keeps working for more than an hour, then the spring is fine, you’ve an issue affecting the manual winding – either way, it’ll need to be seen by APSC.

Sorry to hear but at least the Canadian APSC is in Ottawa, not too far away from you.

Sorry to hear this, but glad you took care of quickly without a bunch of complaining.

APSC will take great care of you and you should have back within 3 weeks.

Complaining only feels good for a short while. There's a new service center here in Canada, so I'm might even have it back end of next week.

Cheers

Looks like the Chrono Module was defective and had to be replaced. Watch is under observation. Looking good for a quick return :)

Thanks Benlee. I plan to enjoy it as much as I can. Loving this price very much. Surprised how versatile it is.

Glad I acquired one before they become very hard to obtain.

Cheers and have a good weekend.

Hi Ray

Everything was taken care of by the person who brokered the watch for me. Still have yours?

I love this watch....can't wait for some different types AP straps to come in.

Cheeers
