10-02 Meeting: Automatic Watch Power Reserve Troubleshooting – User Error vs. Hardware Failure
Auto watch power reserve + ABR handoff · 2026-10-02 (~2m)
Shop banter: automatic watch stopped overnight after one wear day. Consensus = under-wound mainspring, not broken reserve — unscrew crown, 30–40 manual winds, then wear.
Tail: Lance asks for new Audi incentives/discounts; someone flags a mislabeled car on site (“S3 5”). Real marketing decisions continue on the Q8 specials tape.
No device highlights on this take.

I think my power reserve is fucked up on this watch.
0:02
By the way, you like the meter?
0:06
Is there a light tuner? I wore. I think I wore this watch Wednesday, and I went to put it back on today, and it wasn't working.
0:15
Okay.
0:16
So is that a seventy hour? What is that?
0:19
No, those are still. That's their new movement, so I think it's still forty eight hour. Now here's what happens, because I've had that happen with me where I've like worn it. Haven't worn it in a while. Then wore it one day,
0:33
And then put it down. And like the next morning, I come up and it's it's not. I think sometimes you don't move enough. Yeah, because the last two times I've worn it, it's like.
0:45
You have to. You might have to actually undo the crown and turn it like thirty, forty times. And then wear it all day.
0:52
That's what I do when I pick up one of mine that I had worn in a while. I wind it and then put it on.
0:57
I think it just probably didn't charge the day you wore it, but you. I mean, definitely keep an eye on it. I think that's because that's happened to mine, and I was like, " Fuck!" It happened to mine as it was getting ready to go out of warranty. Like I think I had six months left, and I was like, " Fuck, do I send this thing in?" Like, yeah, it's not good. But I, but I think that's what I realized that like it probably just didn't charge much.
1:26
Do you have an email that you want to send me? Or, or like for like the new shit for Audi? Yeah, whatever. Or, or how do you want to do it?
1:42
Bring me up to speed.
1:42
What do you mean? I just mean what's our new incentives? What do y'all want to run discounts like all that kind of shit? We can get that figured out. What's up? I think we have one of our cars mislabeled on the website. Say what? One of our cars is mislabeled on our website. Okay. Is a you thing. What is it? Say three five.
