How do you get your watch move? always wind your watch when you first put it on your wrist or just give it a shake?

different people do it differently
1) hold the watch by its lug horizontally and give it a soft counter clockwise turn.
2) wind it
3) shake it vigourously
4) shake it gently

For automatic watches that has screw-in crown, usually I spin it. If possible, I reduce the frequency of screw and unscrew to preserve the screw thread. For non screw-in crown, wind it first and then wear it.[SIZE="2"][U][B]Movement collection:[/B][/U]

Funny. Dun u guys adjust te time before winding/shaking it? Or at least set te time before u head out?? I'd do so by adjusting te time n date first n winding it before I leave te hse. Most often, I'd hv done tis te night before since I oredi knw which watch I'm gonna wear te next day.
