Is it on a winder? Probably needs to be regulated. Mine gains a little...not much.

it is not, just leave it on the table. Should I assume it is normal? I travel a lot so can’t use a winder ...

Hey guys,

I have noticed that my pepsi watch doesn’t keep much power at night when not using it. I see myself adjusting the hour time every morning.

Is this a common issue that you all have to deal with? Just wondering...

How much is it off, several minutes or several hours?

Somethings wrong in that case, that is definitely not normal. It should be spot on after 8 hours.

Wind it 100%. Should post your QC pict of the regulation of the watch. It’s a rep..lol..they aren’t waterproof or should go under water without being tested on and the movements need servicing to be pretty accurate. Otherwise..seiko makes great watches and they are gen

Of course there's something wrong! The movement is a piece of shit.

I agree.

I have stopped selling these.

Impossible to give any warranty on this ticking time bomb


If you only buy 1-2 per year you might get lucky.

But try buying 10 and then report back how it went with reliability lol

Correct me if I'm wrong but the movement is the same as the ICHS GMT which should be reliable. It's just the GMT complication with the hour hand spring that's the weak part. If that spring breaks your hour hand won't move but otherwise for these movements to lose 1 hour for every 8 hours should not be normal.

I could be wrong though.

Is there a way to pressure your manufacturers to be able to buy the part with the weak reliability? We are talking about one part of the watch that is weak. Tons of money was spent on building a modified movement through R n D...Im sure they have a ton of these parts sitting in the plant...there are other watches that uses this crap movement. It's up to you, KSwatches, to set us free.

This is still the best pepsi so far.

To make it clear, after a full winding the watch works perfectly fine on spot. Even after 10 hours of non use.
