Hello everybody,
I just got mine. Initially, the second hand was moving forward and then it would go back a tick, and then resume normally. And then that would repeat. after a minute or so it seems to be working correctly. Is this a low battery indicator or a problem? The Victorinox website says quartz watches stop and then jump forward 4 seconds to indicate low battery. This isn't doing that.
Thoughts?

sven993That should absolutely not be happening. These watches are using either ETA or Sellita movements which as you said, will jump tick once every few seconds to indicate a low battery. They should never go backwards. I'd keep an eye on it.

sven993Yes. That is the warning that the battery is going dead. Have two dive 500's. Both did the same thing. Replace battery and it will be just like new.
