Although MWC was not a manufacturer at the time (having been founded in 1974), this watch captures the spirit of the originals. Photo Credit: Watches Of KnightsbridgeEssential Winding Instructions: To wind the watch from an empty state to full, approximately 30 turns of the crown are required. This is fewer than many other hand-wound watches, which often require 40 or more turns. Once fully wound, the watch has an average power reserve of around 36 hours. For daily wearers who wind the watch each morning, the number of turns can vary slightly without significantly affecting the power reserve. Users often find that 25 turns suffice for daily winding, as the watch wouldn’t require a full wind after 24 hours. Most owners develop their optimal winding routine within the first few days of use. It's important not to overwind the watch, as this can cause the mainspring to lock up or break. Overwinding occurs when the mechanism is wound beyond its designated stopping point, leading to potential damage. Manual watches are susceptible to this, while automatic watches are typically protected from overwinding.
