Planet Ocean doesn't run

Hi, I just received my first rep watch and I am thrilled how good it looks. It's an OMF 1:1 Planet Ocean Chrono.
But the watch is not running. I've been moving the watch now for 10min, I guess that should be enough to charge it?
Is there a trick or procedure to get the watch running.

Edit: Seems I misposted this in the wrong part. And after laying 15min on the sofa, the watch is suddenly working.

Thank you. Yes, after adjusting the time and date I winded the watch. Don't know if this solved the problem or something else. At least its running now.
Does it matter in which direction you wind?

Sounds like it just needed a wind.
Yes. It does Matter what direction you wind. .

You need to watch some YouTube videos on how to operate automatic watch. Enjoy
