erratic start

[travellingbrit]

Hey, anyone had this before ?. My EXP11 generally keeps ridiculously accurate time, running at arround a second or two fast a week..!!, But as I have desk jockey spells and forget to wind it, it occasionally stops and I have to wind it up and this is where it gets odd. It happened the weekend before last, stoppd friday night and I started it up on saturday morning, I did the full 40 turns and wore it none stop. It then stopped saturday night - re started and it lost 30 minutes on sunday and 10 minutes on Monday.....I reset in on the Tuesday and it's not lost a nanasecond in the 10 days since then....how come ?, it's either wound or not...isn't it ?

It sounds like a watch that needs a service.

Erratic behavior can be a symptom of it being magnetized? How old is the watch and is it still covered by warranty? Either way sounds like it needs to get checked out.

I had a watch like that once, I actually used a compass to validate it was magnetized! It made it move haha... I brought it in to have a service and the people threw it on a device that does this.. and gave it back to me [Degauss?].. no charge at the time!

Good luck, hope it's just that.
