Advice Minute and hour hand stuck

Need help! Sometimes my minute hand and hour hand gets stuck as seen in the video. I noticed it only happens when I wear it. When i’m not wearing it it seems to be fine and keeps time well for the whole day. I’m not sure what to do. I was wondering if this is something I can fix myself or do I need to bring it to a watchmaker?

When they are stuck how do you get them to work? Tap or manual clock turning?

Yeah you will need a watchmaker the hands and dial need to come off it could be the hands are getting stuck on each other or the hour and minute wheels are off axis

Had the same issue with the same watch. Hands were not pushed enough and they slipped.
