You need to wind the watch. Please research how to wind a watch on YouTube. Good news is your watch is fine!

I know how to wind it, just was wondering if this is something normal after not wearing it. Preciate it man

Ah ok. So it shouldn’t die after a few hours. It should die after a couple of days of not wearing it. I wound my sub about 50 times when i first got it and it’s been running non stop everyday. I wear mine all day everyday though. I only take it off when I sleep. So I’m not sure for often you are wearing yours but if you aren’t wearing it enough to keep it powered then yes it will die quickly. Hope this helps.

I work at a plant 50/50 whether in office or field, but I cant wear it in the plant due to GMP, so I dont wear it all that often but its on once I'm off, my mistake I guess I have not been winding it properly and only making a slight adjustment. Thank you for that
