If I need to start up again I use the winder and after 8 gentle (me!) turns of the winder away the second hand go's. Then give it about another 30 and thats it.

On other makes of watches I act the caveman and give it a shake., sometimes not on the wrist (I shouldn't have said it like that!!!) and away they go. I don't bother to wind them, just do what they were made to do and wear them!

Nothing has gone pear shaped as yet in 20 odd years doing it this way.

Sorry I couldn't make it 30 JJ but youre a bit older than me.
