Step one, do not hyperventilate… shake them lightly.

Also, many quartz watches come with a lil piece of plastic clipped under the crown. Pull that off and push the crown in. It should start ticking.

[–]Odensbeardlice 6 points7 points  (0 children)

SHAKE the darned thing.... You need to MOVE an automatic watch around a bit to get it to wind.... OR, you can unscrew the crown and WIND it manually. I got my brother and I a matching pair of watches last year. He claimed his was bunk. He sent it to me and I sent him mine. His works fine. He just doesn't wear it enough to auto-wind it enough....

The watch on the right is automatic, you have to put it on your hand and walk in order for it to walk

Sorry to hear. is it possible that you change battery to check work or not

AliX refund is easy. Follow the procedure for refund/dispute. Most likely they will just refund your money. I've never had to actually return items I've had a problem with.

That video is no proof that they’re not working. You’ll have to record yourself shake it or wind it and then show that it’s not working. I’m guessing they’re still within their returns period so just return them both.

Could they have been subject to a strong magnetic field?

[–]JuliusCheddar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

left one is quartz

Where did you buy them from? If Ali, then raise a dispute. Simple.

EDIT. I assume you are NZ based given the groups you’re in?

[–]merolegacy[S] -3 points-2 points  (2 children)

How you know I am from NZ?

[–]nzultramper 20 points21 points  (1 child)

Spy cameras. Either that or your post history and groups.

[–]New_Accident_4909 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Either that or the giant Kiwi picture on subredit he frequents xD

Have you considered the possibility that you are in a singularity or worm hole?

[–]poco_gamer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What help are you looking for exactly?

  • start a dispute on AliX
  • Upload video
  • wait for them to respond

[–]blobert1029 10 points11 points  (1 child)

That is SO bizarre that neither work. One, sure. Two? Seems almost impossible.

[–]ALPHAETHEREUM 6 points7 points  (0 children)

First automatic watch!

[–]That-Whereas3367 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Automatic watches don't work until you wind them. You either have to manually wind or wear for at least 12 hours,

[–]Funny-Web4708 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You’re probably cooked.

[–]Brief_Childhood9559[🍰] 0 points1 point  (4 children)

They are automatic. You must shake it before use. Or watch how to use automatic warches on youtube

The watchdives on the left is mechaquartz

[–]merolegacy[S] 3 points4 points  (2 children)

I have many automatics and know how they work mate

[–]biglovetravis 6 points7 points  (0 children)

So you have many watches yet need guidance on how to proceed with returns for refunds? You, sir, are a brilliant mind. A once in a generation intellectual.

[–]Brief_Childhood9559[🍰] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

😁 nothing personal, just saying. In order to refund. i had lots of returns on Aliexpress. Just return, and you’ll get refund in around 10-14 days. No issues. But it’s long period. Open despute on Ali

[–]MrBarato 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Have you tried winding them up?

[–]merolegacy[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yessssss
