Sometimes it just needs a wiggle to get started, even when fully wound. Nothing to worry about.

I have this with my newly aquired explorer 2, wind it with crown but needs a wiggle to ''start'' my sub starts after about 29 turns every time.

Define what you mean by "Bang!" on more mature watches they need a gentle rock to get the balance to move, you really don't want to be hitting the watch to get it to start.
