Disclaimer: the previous buyer said the watch isn't auto-winding and stops every 2 days or so at midnight, so i offered to take it back. When I met him, I asked him how many turns of the crown did he do once power reserve is empty, he said 10-20 times. Note that this is not enough to fully wind the watch.
I've been testing the watch the past week. Fully wound the crown for about 40 turns and set it aside. Did it twice and lasted a little over 38 hours both times, just as the published power reserve of the sellita movement of 38 hours. Once I only wound the crown for 10x or about 25% (expected 9.5 hours of power reserve). I wore the watch at home for 24hours straight, even while sleeping and it only stopped 1 hour after I stopped wearing it, so I'm pretty sure that the auto-winding is working. From what I know based on what I've read and experience, an automatic watch very low in power reserve might stop after a while even while wearing if you're wrist isn't active enough, that's why experts recommends that they be manually wound 10-20x every now and then even you wear it daily

From the disclaimer, can I assume the Speedbird is working normally without any serious issues @bluescotch69? If so, then I think I can discuss closing the deal. Many thanks

IMO, the fact that watch stops working only 1 hour after a 24-hour-on-wrist period indicates an issue with the auto winding mechanism, don't you think so? My experience with NH35, ETA 2824 and W200 is quite positive as my watches stay over 18 hours after they leave my wrist after a day of wearing.

As i said, the watch started at only 25%, so it wouldn't have lasted more than 24 hours if auto-winding isn't working? anyway, i take note of your opinion. thanks
