As you may have noticed, we we're offline this morning. This was caused by the "Thanks" plug-in going rogue and using up way too many server resources. This triggered an automatic suspension by our hosting provider as they thought it was a malicious attack. The "Thanks" plug-in has been disabled, hopefully temporarily so I can determine if that was indeed the cause, and take steps to prevent it from happening in the future.

I apologize for the disruption and for any confusion that may have caused.

Citizen NY0040-09W question

Post by pdsf »

Looking to get other owners' input and experience here. My NY0040-09W does well on the wrist. It's around -2s/day. Handwinding it charges it effectively.

However, it would not charge when I use a winder! I have tried either or both directions and experienced with different cycles. None of them worked. Is that odd?

Your watch movement only winds in one direction, other watch movements wind in both, also the winder is meant to maintain the wind not wind up the watch.

Thanks! I have tried either direction as well, assuming that it might wind in one direction (cf 9015). I always get confused about which direction so I tried both. :? I think it failed to maintain a charge but I could be wrong. Let me go back and do more testing!!

Thanks again!
