Congrats, its a great watch. Yes, if you put a little back
: pressure on the crown when setting the time the second hand will
: reverse and if you apply just the right amt of pressure, you can
: stop the second hand to allow you to set the time down to the
: seconds. Ive heard that a new speedy takes a few months for the
: winding to get smoother.
Thanks for replying! Another question I have is, when setting the time, does it matter if you move the hands backwards to set it, rather than advancing them forwards? The reason I ask is that I have seen advice on manual wind watches stating that you can break the movement by moving the hands backwards when setting the time especially in watches where the second hand doesn't stop! Again the instruction manual does not advise of this!
Regards,
Joseph.
