You should be getting at least 50 hours, if you're only getting 16 hours then that's a big problem as you will need to wind it twice a day!
Are you sure you wound it fully?

Wind it until it can not be wound anymore, that's how you get maximum PR.

Newbie here. Tried searching can't find.
Have a watch that I can't seem to get wound up enough (didn't use for a few weeks) and need to wind it, but forget how! It stops at night; I shake a few times or even for quite a while, vigorously, and it still stops (I think I'm way too sedentary!) I have long since lost my instruction pamphlet that came with my Rolex Oyster Perpetual Datejust. Can anyone explain how to wind manually? When I unscrew the crown, there are three different positions; the one furthest out moves the hour/minute; the second one advances the date when moving counter-clockwise; there is some resistance when I move it clockwise. Furthest in, there is little resistance counter-clockwise, but some clockwise. Which of these is actually winding the watch? Thanks! |

Well, you are in the panerai forum, but the first position in Rolex is the winding position. Unscrew back and then wind forward in the first position.
