u can wind or move it till it is fully wound by the rotor. as u wind it, it'll feel tighter and it should suffice

i seeeee. thanks bro!

Wearing for 8 hours a day should gv you a full charge. Alternatively wind clockwise for ~40 times will do as stated in the manual.

yeah weekdays is okay. its on those lazy weekends that i cant get it charged haha.

mine winds anti-clockwise though. i googled n most people say to wind clockwise too. am i doing something wrong? i felt resistance if i try to wind clockwise so i didnt dare to do it

hey guys. i just had a weird experience with tissot midvalley branch. Brought my dad's watch there to change strap, then he said he'll take about 1-2 months to change. So i gave them the watch and they gave me the receipt stating strap broken and watch stopped. Since the watch hasn't been used in a long time, the watch wasn't working but we assume no battery only.

Then about 2 weeks ago i got a call from them, they say the total cost would be RM800 (rm600-engine, 200-strap) to change strap and repair the engine(or something like that). So obviously i said no and told them only to change the strap and not touch the engine because it was way too expensive and i wanna try repair at normal shop.

So just now i went to collect the watch. Strap changed but the watch still not moving, so i brought it to another watch shop in midvalley near jusco. Then i ask them to check see what happen. To my surprise IT WAS JUST A FLAT BATTERY. I was so damn shocked and surprised even though they charge me 50 bucks to replace the battery. Did the Midvalley boutique try to con me off 600 bucks or what?

i got same experience with my Timex watch. 1 shop say movement rosak. then i just go to another shop n simply ask them to replace battery...turns out fine sleep.gif

sounds like common tactic for watch shops.. but im surprised even tissot branch also wanna con... aiyo

After changed the battery the movement is working doesn't mean the movement is fine. It may be draining battery within short time.

good point. perhaps winkytoe can report again in a few weeks.

the timex i mentioned...i lost it after getting my tissot ahahaha. tak sayang anymore...
