They can be easily over wound and damaged. 8-9 turns of the winding crown (from when they stop) is all that is necessary. Sometimes a gentle shake (right to left from 9 to 3 o'clock face up) is helpful to get them goingUnless a recent service is mentioned in the listing it is always recommended to service a vintage watchVintage means old so some small defects are acceptable due to the age of the watchNo waterproof tests are completed therefore it is strongly advised to keep them away from water No timing tests are completed unless mentioned in the listing No papers or original box are included in the listing unless stated. We cannot offer guarantees with any of the watches as they're 2nd hand and we do not know the history unless mentioned in the listingPlease do not expect the accuracy of a new modern watch     Please note: All watches are videoed running/ticking before sendingThank you kindly
