I know this sounds like a dumb question, but how do you wind a Radiomir (210)? I know the Luminor winds by just the turn of the crown (no unscrewing needed), but does the Radiomir's crown need to get unscrewed before you can wind it? I am asking this because I had a $1000 watch that had a screw down crown, and one day the threads got stripped, and I dont want that to happen to a panerai.

Yes, to wind a Radiomir, you unscrew the crown, once unscrewed, you wind it until it's fully powered. then screw it back. That's how it works. If you're worried about threads being stripped, then it means it's out of alignment in first place I think.
