Hi, I Took my watch off yesterday (a chronomat b01) around 5 and today when I woke up it had stopped. Is this something to be concerned about? I should note that I always have the big second hand running if this makes a difference

Maybe, maybe not.

It may simply be that you haven't been active enough and / or wearing it frequently enough to maintain the power reserve. Give it a full wind and wear it as normal and see if the problem recurs, if not then everything is likely fine - just give it an occasional wind to keep it 'topped up'.

Thanks. I received it in the mail last Friday and it was running, so i never wound it. I just wound it and it's working fine. The only thing is I'm in the two week window to return it so I'm wondering what you guys think I should do.

I think you should assume it's fine and not worry. If you never wound it when it arrived it likely had no power reserve.
