My Glycine Combat Sub is unresponsive to hand winding…

I suppose this is ultimately going to affect accuracy and worst case affect the watch? I only have a rudimentary knowledge of automatics.

Glycine vs Henry Archer

So I stumbled upon Henry Archer microbrand while I was surfing the internet yesterday. One of their watches got my attention and asked them questions. Their response was quick and professional.
Today I searched for similar size and price watches and found Glycine Combat Sub, and emailed them asking the same questions, their response was snarky, which made me decide to buy the Archer only. Anyway, I’m not butthurt or anything, just sharing my experience.
