Hey guys...just picked up a NIB VX-200,yes the Shnoop deal the some may have jumped on a while back. Well i just got mine yesterday (not from shnoop) and it's dead! Meaning no matter how many times i wind the friggin' thing,the movement won't run. The seller says he got it a while back and never wore it. He is correct because all of the plastic is still on the bracelet clasp and it's never been sized. Anyway he tells me that since it sat for so long,it may have to be "wound by an expert". Am i a dummy or what?? It's a pretty standard 2824 movement,correct? Usually you give 'er a little shake and/or turn the crown several times to get it going. I did all that and nada!! It's on the winder now. He insists that if i can't get it going myself,i'd have to take it in to a jeweler to wind the mainspring. OK guys...what do you think?? Any suggestions? Is this normal? Anyone else have the same problem with a VX-200? I appreciate any and all feedback. Randy
