How many times should you wind an Automatic Watch? 

I am glad to hear that. Let me know what you think about it. Did you also go for the blue dial?

@@vintageradar Yup! Same one with the Bracelet SRPB41. Looks better in person.

Yes, I know!@@americanpaisareturns9051

Yes, awesome watches.

How do you like it so far?

I remember being given similar advice by a watchmaker. He said the winding gear train in an automatic watch was not as robust as that in a manual wind so best to only wind an automatic occasionally.

No, just a gold-tone rotor.

​@@vintageradarBy gold, I do not mean the color, but rather real gold, which is the manufacture, metal, and efficiency of this watch. I mean it is a wonderful masterpiece. Thank you.

@@user-nf8np1zq9h This is the watch: amzn.to/49ipbFU

If they have a manual winding function, that is fine.

@@vintageradar sometimes its not so that's why I said avoid it

@@vintageradar No, it's not.

@@vintageradar apparently, from what I read, winding an automatic watch may cause it to wear more than necessary

@@mlodygryros Using just the winding feature would wear the movement faster meaning you might need a service faster But if you wind it a few times when you pick it up before wearing it, there should be very little difference.

I would recommend sending it back for service if you just received it. That is a major defect of the watch.

Warranty!!!

A rotor fell off? 💀

If the watch can be winded yes.

I believe that winding it 20-30 times will wind it fully. Modern automatic watches cannot be overwinded, this means you can wind it 200 times but it only needs 20-30 times.

That should not do anything to the watch, but I believe that on some old mechanical watches it can damage them.

Yes, it is a Seiko model. SEIKO SRPB41 Presage: amzn.to/46cUqzv

The automatic ones, yes.

Seiko is among the best in the business in this price range. I do not know if there is a problem or not as it runs smoothly.

If you keep on wearing that is why, or maybe you have one with a very high power reserve.

@@vintageradar ok. Thank you

My pleasure!@@ranjitmandal4648

basically meaning "giving it power"

Not all automatic watches have a manual winding option.

Ive tried winding anti clockwise and it works

To wind it or to set the time?@@8kmar

@@8kmar I have a similar issue with a ETA 2824 Tissot Automatic. It seems that the crown wheel has jumped the crown pinion (the teeth are not meshed but are jammed). The spindle moves anti clockwise but any attempt to force clockwise motion of the crown in position 1 could make more damage. I am taking mine to a repair place tomorrow and hope there is little damage. It may be that during the last service one plate was not positioned properly or the watch has had a bang. The good news is that parts for ETA 2824 are not too expensive and are available if needed. The watch should work via rotor shaking but best to get it looked at just in case there are any loose bits of metal teeth floating around inside.

I do not know if this was sarcasm or not, but I will make a video about that as well.

Good comment, pointless video

This watch is too expensive in India bro. 😢 , But I really liked it.😊

@@shnstdo8480 Yes, it is a great model. you can also look at pre-owned models.

I would recommend to stop there. Most modern automatic watches cannot be overwound. But there are some that can actually break if you go too much.

​@vintageradar One question can a watch such as the Invicta Pro Diver Automatic that uses a NH35A Japanese Automatic movement be over wound?

​@vintageradar can you over wind a 1966 omega constellation?

@@petef7323 I cannot say, as I never owned that model, but for vintage mechanical watches: once you start to feel resistance that is where you need to stop winding. There is a risk you break the mainspring if you go pass that resistance.

@@vintageradar Thanks for the quick reply! 👌

Winded or wound are both correct.

Never though about it that way. Very nice!

@@vintageradar yup bro, also i find miyota 8215 and 8315 and 9 series movement best above swiss movements

Very nice!@@zipitar9018

Both winded and wound are correct.
