problem with pam 005 logo

[Wiz]

Hi everyone,

First, sorry about the crappy English, I have a problem with sequence of tenses.

I just bought a PAM 005 logo from a fellow member (viewtopic.php?f=14&t=57423).

I received the watch this morning. I tried to wear it all morning but the hands didn't moved at all, so I tried to "shake" the watch very slowly. It made the hands moving, but as soon as I was stopping, the hands stopped moving as well. I did it several times including one time for 15 minutes in a row.

Does anyone has an idea of what's going on ? Is it broken ?

Thanks.

Your watch is a manual wind not an automatic. Just give her about 20 winds (mine stops when fully wound) and she'll start ticking away.

I'm really sorry about asking, but how do I do that ..?


EDIT: Ohhhhh Ok, winds means "remonter". Great

EDIT 2: Is the gen manual as well ?

you see the lever at the side of the watch? Flip up your lever... then turn the crown

Yes the gen is manual..

Thanks to both of you, and sorry about that. I still have to learn a lot about English terminology. I knew how to "remonter" a watch, but my dictionnary is not really clear about the translation of "to wind".
