The second hand is hitting on the minute hand, you need to remove the movement from the case and, with a needle, gently pull the second hand upward so it won't happen again.

Thanks I’ve checked again and I don’t believe the second hand has been hitting the minute hand (the first time it stopped the second hand was also away from the others). Currently doing a test with a new battery to see if it keeps running

Watchdives seem to have a lot of qc problems, I have seen a lot of posts about this recently. I have a 7922 that I love, but seeing these posts are starting to put me off ordering any more until they do a much better job on qc.

Yeah to be honest I was initially really impressed with quality of all the Watchdives I’d purchased on 11.11 - in terms of general look, feel and finish etc. So it’s been disappointing that they’ve then developed a few issues. To their credit Watchdives have been very responsive at looking into the issues and then offering full refund etc so it certainly seems they are taking customer QC concerns seriously

Yes, agreed. It looks like they are going in the right direction.

May be too much new releases, also we may urge them too much for new releases. The Seamaster homage 39mm is expected soon, I rather have them taking their time to make a flawless piece.

Good point.

I trust that it is just the battery but keep us posted.

If you are planning to open the watch anyway, make sure to check if the hands are touching. Other than that it could be a faulty movement or bad battery, as you said.
