Help! Crown won't wind - stuck in time set mode
Hi guys,
My Pam (calibre OP1) has a winding issue. The crown is stuck in the time set mode (can only move the hour and minute hands), so I cannot wind the watch. Furthermore, the watch is not keeping time because the crown is stuck on the time set mode, so it's essentially dead. Anyone experience this before? Unfortunately, I just purchased this second-hand watch and am pretty upset. And yes, I've reached out to the seller. Any insight would be appreciated. |

Very easy to fix, just visit a local watchmaker. Any watchmaker can fix this.

Does the crown guard or lever show any signs of impact/shock?
