My dkny ladies watch stops when I take it off. After resetting and putting back on, it works again. Why does it do this?

please see attached website.www.esslinger.com/watch-crystals/

Go an purchase where it is. What else to do?

David only a professional can fix this or replace it.

Usually you would have to press really hard to get the case back on the watch, especially if it's a large dial. If you still can't get it back on, I suggest taking it to a watch repair person. They might charge a couple dollars or do it for free. If you prefer to do it yourself you can purchase a watch tool presser for around $15, just be carefull when using the tool , make sure you have the right size dial and you are all set. You can try it on a cheap watch first, just so you can practice. I hope this helps! Marcelo

It is probably replaceable. Try to locate a watch repair shop or and jeweler who repairs watches. If they don't have one, then contact DKNY directly.

most of this kind of watch can be open by a skilled repair man using a knife, you can try it. but the hard part is not opening it but closing in the cover. it is close by pressing in at the sides of the watch. Better to see a repair man for this.

DKNY is typically a quartz movement and doesn't have a "winder". I believe the part you are referring to is the crown. The watch may have stopped working for several reasons. The first three things I would suspect is that the battery died, the watch is in the set position, or the movement was damaged when the crown was coming off. If the watch is in the set position then pushing the stem in will cause the watch to run. The next thing to do is to replace the battery since it is only a few bucks. If it runs then you can replace the crown and your set. If it doesn't run I would suggest replacing the movement along with the crown and that you will have to price and see if it is within reason since this type of repair wont be covered under warranty.
Depending on the model of DKNY you may have to go through DKNY for the part. Remember that they are manufactured by Fossil. You could save yourself a lot of time by going to your local watch repair shop.

Thanks!

Hi, you should be able to get one from a watchmaker

For closing your caseback you need the man with very strong hands first, but it might not work as some casebacks can be closed using special tools only.
Before you visit the watchmaker, try this: first of all open your bracelet by taking out spring lug. This will make more space at the back. Then take watch caseback and check for groove in it. Align that groove with stem (pin going into watch movement) and deepen grooved caseback side as it should be. Then without turning caseback apply great pressure with both hands to the watch(from caseback and dial sides). If hands are strong enough, caseback should snap on into place.
In case if it doesn't work, find a piece of thick leather (wide mens belt will do) and place it on completely flat surface (table top). Place the watch face down on that leather, adjust caseback groove with stem again and try to press caseback down with both hands, only this time using your weight.
If all mentioned above doesn't work- you have to go to see watchmaker.

Good luck.
