Lurch 1 Posted September 13, 2019 Another question regarding winding please, do you just wind the crown in one direction ( I presume clockwise) or forward and back to wind it up, had it serviced by Nick but don’t want to f..k it up , don’t know too much about these tbh, thanks.

black263 228 Posted September 13, 2019 Clockwise, looking at the crown facing you. You may have to unscrew the crown a few turns to unlock it first. If you do have to do this, then to relock it, press it in gently while you turn it anti-clockwise. You'll feel a click as the threads engage, then turn it gently clockwise to screw it down. As it's an automatic, you should not be able to overwind it, since there is a built in clutch to stop the autowind overstressing the mainspring. Be gentle, as the 7750 is renowned for delicate hand wind gears. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
