to be fair its a VERY common mistake - be grateful it was only £75 - I know someone who did it on a Rolex - try £990 to repair!0

well i went into argos today who showed me the report from rotary! they are saying that when they recieved the watch the side winder was out and this is a big no no as this will stop it being waterproof!!!! hubby said that when he handed the watch over the winder was not out and the watch has never been exposed to water even if it had popped out? so it is our word against theirs and of course they are bigger than us and hubby now has no Christmas present as we refuse to pay another £75 on top of the original cost of the watch :O( i will never purchase from argos again or buy a rotary watch! in future we will stick to accurist who are able to make watches that last in excess of 16 years with no trouble
What kind of winder the watch has? I have a Citizen with a huge knob (no pun intended) and it is very easily to pull it out accidently when it get caught on the edge of my pockets when I am reaching for something, for example. This will allow moisture (not water) to get in and when the temperature drops, water droplets forms on the glass on the inside.0
