PAM 390 winding issue?

[ozon1969]

Hi all, I received this watch this week after buying it in a m2m deal.
just a quick question about winding the 390. I wind the watch clockwise and it feels and sounds pretty crackling, not sure if that is the right word... It's my first Pam so not used to it. power reserve seems to last me less than a day so I must be doing something wrong. is the cracking sound an feel normal for a watch like this? not sure, I don't want to break the mechanism... It feels and sounds like the mechanksm is faulty. maybe one of you can advise on this.


Kind regards,

There shouldn't be any strange sounds when winding. Have a watch smith look at it.

It could be a VERY simple Keyless works issue. Set lever not fully engaged with the clutch wheel; stem release screw not tightened all the way; etc... Worst case scenario is a bad movement which can be replaced for $35
