Aqua Terra coaxial 8900 HELP

Cip1976 · Jun 25, 2023

Hello. I bought my first Omega watch. Aqua Terra with coaxial mechanism 8900. I started it manually with 50-60 turns and started wearing it day and night without taking it off my hand. After two days it stops and I have to start it again manually by turning the crown. It behaves as if the self winding part does not exist. Is this normal or is this how this mechanism behaves? Thank you.

When you swirl the watch around does the rotor appear to turn freely? It’s likely going to be a warranty return by the sounds

The rotor moves easily and without any problem.

Yea you will need to get it looked at under warranty as that isn’t meeting expectations

If you're wearing it you should not have to manually wind it. When I wear mine on an every other day rotation it doesn't stop.

If I would get any of the 8900 aqua terras, it would be this one with orange accents. Let Omega take care of it while in warranty, it's a fine watch.
