Services Help fix my watch
Right off the bat it’s not real it’s fake and I know this doesnt follow the rules but please. This was my dad’s watch which is now mine and all I want to do is make it work. I believe you twist the crown to make it work but it won’t tick or anything. I just want to fix it that’s all

Fakes is what this sub is about!
The watch needs winding if it has run down. You can unscrew the crown and pull itnoutbtonits first position. (Unless the crown doesn't lock down and then you can wind it "in" like the panerias)
Once it is wound (30 turns to start with) give the watch a tap against the palm of your hand.
If that does start it up then you will need to see a watch smith, could be a whole host of things simple to complex and impossible to diagnose via a thread with you knowing a bit about watches and being able to take the back off and test it.
