The Mille Metri movement I got from [mention]unreformed66[/mention] has suddenly stopped working (I need to take a look at it).

And my 6152 has the same problem. 6497 stopped working too.

Not really, the watch was stored for a couple of months, unused but working. One day I decided to wear it again and it didn't tic/move. I checked for loose screws and/or broken parts but I saw nothing.

Is the one that was converted to high CP.

I will check it more closely and let you know.

same thing happens to all my daily beaters. :cry:

my watch with miyota 82s7 movement suddenly stop ticking.
my egi case is in a workshop for replication.
then a spring bar on bracelet link of my other vintage watch got snapped.

All of them happen nearly at the same week. I'm ended up with naked wrist for days before found the spring bar replacement taken from an unused ladies watch.
