My watch has stopped. What should I do?Updated 7 months ago

Mechanical/Automatic Watches: If your mechanical or automatic watch isn’t running, it may need to be wound. For both the Sellita SW200 (Diver and Aviator) and SW221 (Field) movements, wind the crown clockwise until you feel resistance, which typically occurs after about 20-30 full turns for a fully unwound watch. These movements are equipped with a unidirectional winding rotor, meaning they can also be wound by the motion of your wrist. If the watch still doesn’t start after winding, gently shake the watch to initiate the movement.
