SMP Power Reserve

I just received a SMP with the black bezel for Father's Day. I love it. I am trying to test the power reserve on it. I wear it for 10 hrs and then take it off. It sets for about 10 hours or so. I have only had it for a week now. It stopped running last night 9 hours after I took it off. My presumption is that I have not sufficiently wound it for the 44 hr power reserve to kick in. How long do I have to wear it to get it fully "wound" and can I manually wind it to fully "wound" so I can test the power reserve?
thanks.
