can you over wind them?
can you over wind them?
If you have turned da krone wid enough force in da "wind" position to break on of da components in da uhren - you could technically say dat you had "over wound da vatch (LOL) - otherwise no! If you continue to wind da non auto (wid da positive zugfeder/barrel engagement) da balancier vill exhibit high amplitude - but continue to funktion.
On da lever escapement werks - unless you break it - continuing to wind da serviced and correctly functioning uhren will not cause it to cease running. Da uhrmacher typically finds great humor when he hears da noob say dat his vatch won't run "because it ist overwound"!
sm iiH!
