AP 15400 JF stopping and loosing time

[paulsw19]

I have recently received the new AP 15400 JF with the Miyota 9015 movement. The watch seems to randomly stop. In a typical day I would wind the watch in the morning and wear it, the watch will work normally for about 3 – 4 hrs than it stops. If I shake my hand, it will start again for a random time (3 min, 10min, 30 min etc..) and it would stop until I shake my hand again. If I remove it, it will also stop after sometimes. I’ve had a local watchsmith look it but he is not able to fix it. Any idea on what could be the problem and how to solve it? The watch is purchased for a TD and is still under warranty? Should I send it back for repair?

I would really welcome any suggestions / recommendations on how to fix it.

Thanks

There's no quick fix.
It needs a full service or replacement miyota.

New movement is cheap.

Will take forever sending is back to China and waiting for a warehouse repair job. I'd get movement serviced/replaced locally.

Thanks for your comments. I have few more questions:
1. Where can I buy a Miyota 9015 movt and what would be the cost?
2. The mvt in the AP watch has some decoration to make it look as the genuine 3120 movement. The watshsmith who looked at it, did not kow how to open it and retuned back to me after one week. I have used him before, he is usually very good and has serviced many watches for me in the past but not Miyota movement. Where can I find more information about servicing this movement and how to deal with the decoration. here is the watch I purchased

Probably not worth servicing. A new one is $86 shipped from cousins, Ofrei doesnt have the 9015 listed but you can call and ask.
