Broken Laco Watch? Fix Common Laco Watch Problems and Issues
Watch Running Too Fast or Too Slow: The movement may be affected by magnetism or need regulation. A watchmaker can demagnetize or adjust the balance wheel.
Power Reserve Running Out Quickly: Ensure the watch is fully wound. If the issue persists, the mainspring may need replacement or lubrication.
Date Function Not Advancing Properly: Avoid changing the date between 8 PM and 4 AM. If stuck, reset it at 6 AM and consult a professional if necessary.
Water Resistance Failure: Ensure the crown is fully screwed down before water exposure. Replace gaskets and have the watch tested annually.
Loose or Stiff Crown: Dirt or worn components can cause this issue. Cleaning the winding system or replacing parts through a watchmaker can help.
Lume Not Glowing Brightly: Over time, lume fades. If brightness is significantly reduced, consider reapplying lume or replacing hands and dial.
Bezel Not Rotating Smoothly: Dust or debris might be causing resistance. Cleaning or lubricating the bezel mechanism can restore smooth movement.
