Re: How many turns to wind a valjoux 7734

: Just a quickie... approx how many turns to fully wind up a valjoux
: 7734, & how often. I've read various methods.
: I don't want to overdo it!

Hi,

In the valjoux manuel wind normally you can have a resistance after 30/32 wind....sometimes a little more but not more 35...
When you have a resistance just stop or you can broke the spring of barrel...
But whn you have a full puissance, normally your watche can work minimum 40Hours...without chrono and minimum 24/28 hour of power reserve with chrono
Regards
Anthony
