Winder settings for Jaeger Master Calendar 866 movement

So I received my brand spanking new JLC Master Calendar 39mm.

I was advised by a few people to take a look when it arrived using a loupe at the dial as sometimes they have a defect. Didn't need a loupe, just the poor light in my office, can't see it in medium to strong light. Mine does have something on the dial. I'll start another thread this weekend to describe it with pics. When I use a loupe to view the dial, it looks like something either condensed on the dial and left residue or something touched the dial with a contaminate before the watch was sealed. I guess I'll send it in for warranty service when I have the time (winter seems like a good time), meanwhile I want to enjoy it. I wore it this morning to work at 2:00am for the iPhone pre-order and the WIS guys in the room noticed the watch and had a few comments, but no-one noticed the dial issue until I pointed it out. I guess the bright florescent lights don't make it obvious. They all agreed Jaeger shouldn't have an issue setting it straight. My son noticed it in about 5 seconds, but he is like that.

Anyway, back to the reason for this thread...

Can't find much on this reference/movement online. It's an 866 movement and it sounds unidirectional when I move it.

So does anyone know the settings for a winder? After setting the day, date, month and moon phase, I don't want to deal with it when the watch is not worn for a few days.

Thanks,
Cheers,
Corey
