Well, I went to put on my H3 auto and the minute hand just spins. the watch wasn't dropped, and I haven't hit it on anything. I just put it on and it seems like the minute hand is loose and just spins. I contacted traser and was told I need the receipt and the warranty booklet. I have neither. I registered the watch online because I knew I would not have the paperwork.  I am now in the market for a new watch. the guy that deals with the US repairs is a asshole. the watch is 3 1/2 months old and I guess I am out 600 bucks. I learned my lesson, check the customer service of companies before buying. I am so pissed. I am done spending over 200 bucks for a watch, I know it is not as expensive as some really high end watches but I love this watch and it is simple.

You can probably have a jeweler near you fix it.  Shit man, I'd take a stab at it if you were local and wouldn't stab me if I fucked it up.

The minute hand most probably just popped loose and is being held on by the second hand.  it probably just needs the second hand removed, the minute hand reseated, and the second hand reinstalled.  It'll take longer to take apart and reassemble than to actually fix.

I am going to take it to a local jeweler this week, they said a few days for the estimate and a a few days to a week to repair.  The only problem is it is a sealed watch ( I think).

Plenty of qualified watch makers can repair water proof watches. Hell, they can even pressure test them.
