Mechanical Watch Usage Recommendations
For watches with a manual winding movement, it is advisable to wind them at the same time each day, ensuring they have enough energy to operate for the next 24 hours.
Watches with an automatic winding mechanism derive their power from the wearer’s arm movements, eliminating the need for daily manual winding under normal activity levels. However, if the watch hasn’t been worn enough to maintain energy, manual winding can be used as a supplement, with a recommendation of no more than twenty rotations of the crown.
For automatic watches that have not been worn for over 40 hours, winding the crown twenty times before wearing again will help restart the movement’s drive system. To prevent moisture ingress and maintain water resistance, ensure the crown is always securely locked.
