broken Tag
I just inherited a 2001 Tag Heuer Monza re issue Two problems 1 Date will change by rotating the hands but not with the rapid date change with the crown pulled to the second position

2 with winding the reserve is only 22 hr and to wing with the auto you have to quite vigorously shake the watch A winder or gentle shaking does not work

Suggestions? Dave

It's probably never been serviced and needs one - these problems won't fix themselves. It also won't be improved by "vigorous shaking"

If you're THAT frustrated, well, yeah, you can try that Geoff. If it doesn't work, at least you will feel better. :wink:
