Need help on FREAK
Need some advice for FREAK 1, does anyone know when is the right time to wind the movement,
I never set it fully wound because I am afraid might damage the movement, as it seems so delicate.
so sometimes every 2-3 days i just wind it few turns,
is it okay if we wind it after the movement stop frequently????
need some advice
cheers
