I love this watch. the only problem was it would stop once per day and it was not due to underwinding. I opened up the back cover and blew air into it as I spun the winder disk (half moon) so I would get out any dust or dirt in it. It has been two weeks and it has not stopped and has kept perfect time. I didn't see any dirt/dust inside but that was the only thing that solved the problem. the back case is easy to remove. I pust the inside palm of my hand against it and turned counterclockwise and it opened. It was on tight. It is hard to believe the watch is 1000M water resisten with the small single O ring seal. I almost put a thin bead of silicon on it. I don't swim with the watch. I am glad it worked out!

nice fix steve 12345. winder disk (half moon)= rotor. Many movements come a little dirty and unserviced. I'm having my first movement troubles right now with one of my reps. It's an Asian 21 jewel and considering replacing it with another movement. Glad your watch is fixed, SFSO is awesome. :D
