Question
Good morning, I have fossil watch and the seconds hand gets stuck to the point where for like 20 minutes or so the seconds hand will remain stuck, then start moving again, then stop moving again for like 30 minutes. I was wondering how do I fix this?

Answer
Jermaine,

There are two issues (I am going to assume that you already tried changing the battery).

1. Are the hands touching?  If they are, you need to take off the hands and put them on again so they don't touch.

2. Something is wrong with the movement, such as a broken gear.  In that case, you need to replace the movement.

Let's hope it is number 1.

Kind regards

Melvin
