Cal 12

Hi
Second post of the day!

I am the happy owner of a Autavia 11630MH (cal 12) which I purchased from a reputable seller based in the US. Upon receiving the item I noticed that you cannot manually wind it.... I asked the seller if this was correct and he said it was. Is this true... i.e. is it not possible to manually wind a Cal 12.

I did find an old manual wich described the crown's use as for 'winding and setting' which raised my suspicion in the first place!

Cheers
Ben
