  • Max number of wind?

    Hi bros,

    Anyone know what is the max number of winds the mechanical movement on a PAM 111 can take assuming the watch already come to a stop? I have tried to wind like 40-50+ and still doesnt feel the resistance

    and funny thing is, the power reserve last like only 30+hrs

            If u get 30+ hours with 50+ winding, u should wind a total of 80

            Dun worry of hitting the hardstop.
            It will not break the watch unless you wind too hard.
            Just wind slowly once u reach 70+ winds.
            U can wind till max and nothing will happen over long term.

              Fred is right, if you are worried... get a cheap mm with 6497 movements to play with first...

                  Courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen
