Yup, thats the way to wind it

In Response To: Re: Agreed.... ()

One thing to note, that as you wind it and hold it up to your ear, the winding will sound more muffled, like its getting more fully wound with each turn. When its fully wound, you will hear a loud click-click sound. This is the overwind mechanism kicking in. At this time you should stop winding, as it is fully wound.

If you can't or don't want to give it more wrist time, but plan to wear it every other day or so, you might want to invest in a watch winder. There are some good examples out there in the $200 range or so that will do a great job keeping the watch wound.
