Hi Gentlemen,
How many full turns of the crown do you recommend for my 5024 Gondolo? I've gotten to 70 full turns of the cown and it doesn't stop. I don't want to go any further for fear of breaking the mainspring. I wind the watch everyday at approx. the same time and the watch is running as perfect as can be expected keeping excellent time. My other 5 manuals...Lange, JLC, Piaget(2) and AP take anywhere from 45 to 55 (approx.) full turns of the crown at which point the crown stops and I reverse it a half turn accordingly.
For my 5024 how many full turns of the crown will stop it? Not trying to set a world record here but I would think 70 should do it: ) Could it go to 100 full turns before the crown will stop??? Any insight would greatly be appreciated. With kindest regards.
