it works :-)
Hey, thx for your answers!
It does work now!! But I don´t think that "warming up" is necessary, either. After two month, no oils will dry. That might happen after years, not months.

When trying it last time, I just wound up the watch to half power reserve.
Any other explanation?? I´m glad that it works now
