SOURCE: problem winding a Invicta Skeloton Mechanical Stainless Watch

The Tag Heur repair center says an automatic watch must go through an "initiation" process. They recommend winding manually 40 revolution of the crown clockwise. You must wear an automatic watch at least eight hours per day. Repat the initiation if the watch is not worn for 20 hours or so.

It is hard to say not seeing the watch as different watches has different means of push or screw-on buttons. If your watch has a 200 metres mark on dial, then it can be the Helium valve, but it's just a guess. To make sure you'll get the right info, paste this link into your browser:

Find your movement caliber number and follow instructions.

Pull the stem all the way out...like your setting the date. Then hit the upper button and that will move the hand 1 second at a time until it gets here you want.

Instruction for accutime xoxo watch
This watch appears to be a battery operated model from the details I can find. Self Winding watches tend to be a LOT more expensive and usually a Big brand name! Assuming the Chronograph is designed to work the two buttons are usually 'Start/Stop', (top button) and 'Reset', (bottom button). Try this.

-Press the top button once. The smaller dials should start moving.
-Press the top button again. The smaller dials should stop moving.
-Press the bottom button once. The dials should reset to zero. There is another function of the Reset button. You can 'Freeze' the chronograph display for things like lap times.

-Start the chronograph, (Top button once).
-Press the Reset button once, (Bottom button). The dials should stop. The chronograph is still running you have simply paused the display.
-Press the Reset button again. The dials should 'Jump' to the current position the timer is at.
-Press the Top button once to stop the chronograph. *Note* Some of the cheaper watches simply have the dials and buttons for the look of it and don't actually work.

1. Pull the crown all the way out to position 2.
2. Push the crown in slightly to position 1.

Can get the time to start
The watch is a chronograph. If the time hands are not working, minutes and hours, you probably need a new battery. If they are working and it is the chronograph(stopwatch) hands you can't get going then you need to push the buttons that control the chronograph.

The second hand is not moving even when i wind it
This watch is an automatic type and may you not be able to wind it up use the crown wheel (winder). The details on their web site do not describe the operation of the watch, so I can't be absolutely sure about this.

You can wind an automatic watch by swinging it genetly from side to side for few minutes.

When fully wound, the watch will remain working for 42 hours (when not being worn).

These watches thrive on being used and if used daily, they should remain operating.

I stop using mi nixon watch " THE 51-30" for a month and now it doesnt work.
Your watch is an automatic type which means that it is a mechanical self winding watch powered by a spring. It is wound up by a weight that moves when you are walking about and this watch must be worn to keep it operating.

If not worn, these watches will stop in 2 -3 days because the spring has run down.

Some automatic watches can be wound using the crown wheel (winder) but if yours cannot be wound in this way, then swing it from side to side gently for a few minutes and the watch will wind up.

These watches thrive on being used.

My watch stopped run, it will only run for a few seconds and then stop, it has not been worn for a lot of years
This model is not on their web site but other SN models are and they are "self winding" types.

It could be that it needs to be wound by gently shaking it from side to side (face up). Some makers suggest several hundred times to wind the watch fully.

As most makers recommend that their watches are serviced every 2 or 3 years; if winding it up by shaking does not get it going, a trip to their service center might do the trick.

Do I need to wind a Fila Chronograph Automatic Watch
Under normal use winding an automatic watch is not needed.

If it has been left unused for more than about 3 days, then it will stop. On some automatic watches you can wind them but if yours does not allow this, then, holding it level (face up), swing it gently from side to side for a few minutes. This should wind the watch and after this normal use should be sufficient to keep it wound.

Do Carrera automatic watch need a battery to run? because it stop me alot that why it just run for a few mins and stop forever until i move again
Automatic watches are mechanical (spring driven) and they are wound by the gentle swinging of the arm as you walk.

If yours has stopped, then it needs to re-wound by swinging it side to side (keeping the watch face level).

You will need to do this for some time (as many as 300 times, according to one maker).

When fully would the watch should run for about 3 days if not worn.

These watches thrive on use!

Kenneth cole k3771, is the self-wind function working?
Self winding watched should not need to be wound as long as they are being worn.

To tell if the self winding mechanism is working, hold the watch close to your ear (hold it vertical, as though it was on your wrist) and rock it gently. You should be able to hear a ratchet operating (a soft clicking noise).

I can't help thinking your suspicion about the mechanism having failed, sound very likely.
