Any advice from @regal or any others. My SBGA229 was unworn for 5 days and power reserve went flat.

I have tried to wind the mainspring, but it won't get going again. The second hand starts for a couple of seconds when the crown is screwed in but then stops again. It won't recharge kinetically either (by rotating the watch on the arm).

Any idea what the issue is? Could I have over wound the mainspring? Any other ideas?

Does sound like a mainspring issue, but, being an automatic, you can't overwind it so I doubt it's anything you've done.

How old is it? Would definitely be a warranty fix if within warranty, otherwise it's most likely time for a service.
