i have a... interesting.. scenario
so here's my Panerai 111H.. Swiss ETA 6497-1 is the movement
anyways, as you can see from the pictures.. it does need servicing as one of the plates came loose..
also, when i try to set the time... i cannot move the hour/minute hands it's just loose...
BUT ... if i wind it up... the movement runs.. and get this... if I fully wind it up... I can then set the time as usual... as if the watch has no problem whatsoever
so what's going on here? how come if it's "Dead"... i cannot set the time using the crown but once i fully wind it... everything works and functions as normal
