I just bought a Gucci 8905 YA089303 and the second hand jumps about every 4 seconds. Is this fixable?

You are witnessing what is called the EOL or end of life indicator. Relax, it's your battery not you! Better watches have this feature. You will notice the time remains correct even if the seconds hand jumps 4 seconds. Some watches it is 2, some 3 seconds.

Second hand movement stopped working

Morning Mike Harris,

Tired battery will do that.

Some watches will cause the second hand to jump a few seconds as the battery get low... I have seen that a few times... typically a NEW battery WILL restore full operation...

After experiencing the PROFESSIONALS... prices & careless handling I purchased a decent set of tools and have NEVER
regretted it.

Second hand jumping

If your model is not an automatic movement then it means your battery is too low in remaining power to support the watch.

Second hand jumps by two or three seconds at a time

this is a low battery warning indicator, all you need to do is have your battery changed, or if it is a solar powered watch just set it under a bright light to let it charge the rechargable battery.

Second hand doesn't move for each second

Your TAG is fitted with EOL (end of life) feature. This is the cause of that 4 seconds interval movement of seconds hand and thus indicating the time for battery replacement. The timekeeping is not affected by this- it is just warning to replace battery a.s.a.p.
Find your nearest watchmaker and ask for battery replacement.

Do not forget to rate, please.

Watch second hand

I had the same problem with my Tag. Same 4 second jump. It's definitely the battery. I'm surprised at only 3 months, but maybe it sat a while in the display case. Mine was over a year and a half.

HI, i have a gucci watch YA077310 and i dont know how to set it. also the second hand does not work.

To set the time, you normally pull out the crown and rotate it. The main (large) second hand is associated with the chronograph function so is stopped at 12 when no using chronograph. There should be a little second hand in a little round area on dial that is moving.

Skipping second hand

i have this problem too... it's for my gucci 5500M. i haven't tried replacing the battery, but i remember the second hand getting this problem when i had to change the time. i wonder if a small gear broke inside the watch, but the weird thing is that the time still stays on time.
