    I have a Orient Bambino open heart, and to wind it full i have to rotate the crown like almost 200 times🙃🙃🙃, i don’t know if something si worng with mi watch, but the wind works well, it’s just to much turns to full wind 😮😮😮

    • @vintageradar
      @vintageradar  5 місяців тому +1

      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.

    My rotor fell off after the watch receiving a bit of a shocking blow the other day, but winding it will hopefully make it last throughout a full day. I've heard that fixing that is expensive. _fingers crossed_

    • @vintageradar

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

    I have recently learnt that with an automatic watch, using the winder is not a good idea. This is the weak point of the mechanism and it is better to gently shake the watch, or give a few winds to start it, then wear it to allow the rotor to naturally keep the watch wound. Avoid hand winding as much as possible.

      @@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 would recommend making sure the watch is not "fully winded" 15 crown spins is more than enough to get you going and not abuse the watch. 20-30 crown spins is bad advice.
