·I have a Watchco Seamaster 300 with 552 movement that I've owned for 11 years. It's worked fine for years. I had the movement checked and adjusted by a professional watchmaker a a few years ago.
Today, I hand wound the movement as I haven't worn it in a couple of days. When hand winding it, I heard a "snap" and the movement no longer runs.
Any thoughts on what may be the issue?
The stem works and can be pulled out to the winding and setting position. The hands move freely when setting the time by turning the crown both backwards and forwards. And the movement makes the normal clicking winding sound when the crown is turned in the winding position.
I just doesn't run. If I pull the crown all the way out to the setting position, and turn the crown slightly counter clockwise, the second hand ticks for about 5 seconds and then stops.
Thoughts?
