Winding question?

Hi guys

Bought the 590 recently. I'm winding it around 60 times but it's only lasting for a couple of days? As its an 8 day this doesn't seem right. I've just wound it more to see if that makes any difference.

It's my first PAM and AD posted it to me so didn't ask any questions.

Any ideas? Cheers

Did you fully wind the watch? Each wind, how long was it? My watches with the P.5000 movement require about 80-85 times to be fully wound.

I'm not sure, a full wind I think. I've wound it between 80 and 90 times this go so I'll see if that helps. Thanks

Wind it to the stop and check it.

You have to wind till you can wind no more. When you reach this point, there will be a pull back.

The manual says to wind it until it stops. You didn't give it a full wind, apparently.
