: I understand,but maybe I didn't make it clear:
: Usually the second hand starts moving when
: the crown is in the winding position. On
: this one the crown has to be screwed back
: in.I have 2 other Omegas and they will start
: when the watch is just jiggled a few times.
: Not so with the Bond SMP.I've sent an e-mail
: to Omega requesting
: an explanation. I will keep you posted.

PS : My other Omegas need no prior winding nor do I need to fiddle with the crown.
