Margaret says:

Why do all types of watches stop working when I wear them?

Any ideas?

Sweat, shock, water immersion, battery corrosion, failure to wind.... A friend of mine got so drunk that he fell into a motionless coma and his self-winding watch ran down.

All things must pass, but my reasonable (£100) solar watch (Citizen Ecodrive Aviator- other brands are available!) has gained about 1 second per year for the last 10 years. Try one!
