Tissot PR516 won't start — normal low power reserve or possible defect?
I’m very new to this.
I bought my first and new Tissot automatic in Europe and brought it back to the US. I downloaded and read the manual, which was surprisingly short.
When I wore it for the first time, it started running normally and seemed fine. I set the time in position 3 and avoided quick date changes during the restricted hours. It then ran for a little over 30 hours before stopping.
Now I’m trying to figure out whether this is just low power reserve / not enough winding, or if something may actually be wrong with the watch.
I’ve manually wound it in position 1 for more than 30–40 turns clockwise, and I can see and hear the clicks. Even so, right now it is not running.
Does this sound normal for a new automatic that just needs a full wind and regular wear, or does it sound more like something I should take to an authorized dealer under warranty?
