I have a Invicta Automatic Divers watch. I have stopped wearing it for one or two years. Since then, when I try to use it. It works for few hours and then stops. Some times it stops while I am wearing it. Any recomendation is appreciated.

There can be hundereds of causes why your watch isn't working properly, so, I'll not name them.
One is clear- without help of skilled watchmaker your watch will NEVER work properly.
NOTE: It may sound very strange, but mechanical watches do NOT like to be left without job.
Next time you decide to leave mechanical watch aside for long time- do not forget to wind it up once in a 2-3 days even if you are not wearing it.
This will help to prolong watch movements life and keep timekeeping steady and accurate.

My watch wouldn't start ticking after sitting for a few months. I wound it up completely, initiated the stop watch function to see if I could force movement there but it did not work. I wound up dropping it from 8 inches onto my headphone cables to soften the blow and that did the trick. It took about 3 drops on the face of the watch to get it going again.
Boom.
