: So I recently got a Seamaster diver (2254, cal.
: 1120). At first the watch was a bit fast and
: had to send it back to get it calibrated.
: It's much better now but I'm having problems
: getting the watch fully wound (via the
: crown) as I am trying to confirm its
: accuracy. I don't wear the watch a whole lot
: so it'd be nice knowing how to do this.
: The Omega manual is completely useless and
: doesn't tell me anything on how to properly
: wind it. I have the crown in pos. 1 and turn
: it clockwise but when I do, the crown just
: screws back into the case. Does anybody know
: how to do this? Should there be some sort of
: pressure felt as I'm turning the crown? How
: would I know when it's fully wound?
: Suggestions much appreciated. Thx.
Once you have unscrewed the crown, you should be able to easily turn it clockwise to wind the watch. The only way it should screw back into the case is if you push in on it while you turn. Make sure you have unscrewed it all the way so that it "pops out" of the case before winding.
