What symptom will you notice if a watch movement has old, dried-up oil, and what is the fix?
The symptom is that the watch will run sluggishly, lose time, or stop entirely. The fix is to completely strip the movement down, clean away the old residue in a cleaning machine, and apply fresh, correct oil to the jewels and pivots.
