Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, I must be doing something wrong... I hold it in my left hand (right side up) and turn the crown TOWARDS me about 4-5 turns, just like said. I do hear/feel a little click. Then I turn it away from me and it tightens right up and locks... it does not wind. I tried to be careful and NOT push while I turn... oh well... I'll just have to always wear it so it does not stop...
..As for the constellation, thanks for the answer as well. I just never seen the minute hand move like that. It keeps very good time, but this morning I observed it carefully and it jumps almost a full notch every 40 seconds, and another little notch 20 seconds later. 40-20... really strange to me. Is that normal? Battery ok?
Thanks a lot!

: Quartz watches which doesn't have seconds hand
