PAM 1342 winding behavior
Was winding a brand new PAM 1342 and noticed that when winding this watch, the crown would slightly unwind itself in between turning the crown. I learned that this is a manual movement that comes to a hard stop when you fully wind the movement. Repeated clockwise winding of the crown would result it a slight but noticeable unwind of the crown counterclockwise.
Is this slight unwind normal for this P6000 movement? Thank you in advance for your help. |

Yes that slight push backwards is normal.

I think you're referring to kickback from winding the crown. I think it gets more pronounced the closer you are to a full wind. Normal and congrats on your 1342, I picked one up this month, too and loving mine!

Thanks for this post, my 1342 is my first manual wind watch and was wondering the same.
