I just bought a Nixon 51 30 Black watch. When i got it, it didnt come with the plastic bit behind the winder. Have tried to set it but it wont start work. Would the battery be dead or is there a trick to starting them?

if it is a new digital watch there is a small bit of plastic under the winder knob that holds it slightly out
this prevents the battery from going flat while in the shop or storage
remove that plastic bit and push the knob all the way in and it should start workingh
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.
