Do you feel a stop when you get to the end?

Great choice of music; James Bowman would be delighted to know that you chose his voice for your video.
Great of strap too; when I bought mine from the Geneva boutique, it came with the calf vintage strap. Apparently it was sent that way directly from Neuchâtel. :) Haftanız kutlu olsun! (Have a great week! - Sorry, couldn't resist since you live in Istanbul) |

The 233 has a clutch in the winding mechanism that prevents you from over winding it. It doesn't stop like on a P3000 or 6497-based PAM. You can hear/feel it when the claw gets to 8 days on the PR.

Thank you. I did hear a bit of click at the end and stopped. |

Sorry to bring this thread back up, but my new PAM233 (AM/PM replacing my DOT dial) starts to click at the "6" day reserve mark...... so something seems to be off. It will keep winding with a click every turn through the 8-day mark, but it again, this makes me think something is off internally.
Any thoughts? |

My earlier dot dial does the same. It will wind to 8 days, but it will start to click at 6.

Mine doesn't though. It feels like multiple clutches going off at the end. |

Again thanks for this. Was a bit worried. Incredible watch.

Mine winds very easy & smooth and takes a long time (dot dial, J series), I just have a light grip on the crown and quit winding when my fingers slip on the crown instead of the crown turning -- happens when the indicator is just after full.
Great PAM, glad to see the love for this reference! |

Mine clicks around the 7 mark. I keep going till it hits 8. It should be ok right?

Further to the above, mine seems to reach full at 7 as you can hear that click. Another few turns only and it’s at the last marker. Great watch and I’ve noticed a lot of very quick sales when these are listed.
