I bought this watch a while back a go but it’s not working as it should. I tried to post a video but it’s not working so I’m trying to describe the issue. I have to wind it back every day and still it’s the time stops now and then. In 24 hours the time can difference about 1 hour… when its stop I’ll shake it a bit then it’s working again..
thanks!

Perhaps you aren’t winding it fully?

While folks here are generally trying to be helpful where they can, I don't quite see how we should be of any assistance, except for the recommendation to find a watchmaker who's experienced in handling vintage pieces and have him service and repair it. Everything else would be a guessing game that probably won't help.

Where are you located? A forum member may be able to recommend a watchmaker in your area.

Most vintage buys requires a service.

Without pictures of the movement. Hard to say what the problem could be

When was the last time it was serviced? It's pretty common for a dirty movement to do what you're describing.
