OK, you guys totally helped me fix my Avenger SeaWolf, so now lets tackle this one.
Breitling Super Ocean II that wont run. This is a new watch, but when I got it about a year and a half ago it wasnt running.
So I set it aside thinking I would get to it someday... today is someday....
I am a total novice with watches (I needed help getting a simple stem out on my last cry for help).
So this one might be a much bigger bite than I can handle, but maybe you guys have a few troubleshooting tips I can try?
The mechanism is (I believe) an Asian 2824.
The watch appears in great condition inside. No rust, clean, dry.
The oscillating rotor (whatever you call it) will spin back and forth for a second or two when I try to manually activate it.
But then it just stops, doesn't appear to be rubbing or scraping on anything.
I tried just spinning the autowinder for awhile assuming maybe that was the problem, but no change.
Of course I didn't know which way to spin the autowinder so i tried both ways.
Any suggestions?
