As some might remember, a few days I found that my Black Bay was stopping....

I have a quick trip to Mexico City and plan to drop her off at Rolex Mexico...well as I strap her on today, she is still running without additional winding! Last full wind was on Tuesday.

This brings a spooky question...can they hear us????

You have the golden touch in the kitchen, maybe it's contagious.

I don't know about watches, but my car can certainly heal itself every time I take it in to fix a rattle...mysteriously vanished. Only to return after we've left the shop...

antbkny · 22 February 2016, 06:17 AM

Probably due to a glitch in the space/time continuum

cornerstore · 22 February 2016, 06:23 AM

I said then, just wind every few days, like a mechanical watch.

The sticky rotor probably freed itself up.

Sure you tell it to work and it will work...

Sure they can hear us, G. Mine talks to me, too! In fact, they sing to me.

Sure they can hear us! I have serious conversations with them all the time!

Timesurfer · 22 February 2016, 10:33 AM

Shhhhhhh.... I think they are planning to overthrow my evil rule!

What language do they speak? Dutsch or they speak the language of their source Original AD?

That is a very interesting question...maybe multi-language?

So, yours has it too.

I'm glad I'm in good company.

HogwldFLTR · 22 February 2016, 01:42 PM

Interesting that it is now running as it should; the real question is, "what changed?" Of course wearing a watch alone may not be sufficient to keep it running if there isn't enough activity to wind the mechanism. Maybe you should wear it on your dominant hand.

I have no idea. First time this ever happens to me. As I am still going close to Rolex, it might be a good idea for them to check it.
