    Hi Friends

    I just received my Speedmaster Reduced Cal 3220. It came from overseas and has clearly not been worn in a while. It says in the manual to wind if not worn for 45 hours at position 1. Are there only 2 positions? I have only worn it for about an hour so its not running yet, and the minute hand will be in a different when I look at it.

    Advice please!!!!!!!

    First the main seconds hand will not move. The right Subdial at 3 o clock will. The main second hand is for the chronograph.

    Not pulled out is position 1 and you wind at that spot. Pull it out to position 2 to set the watch.

    Well it should start as soon as you wind it or shake it. The power reserve at ful wind is around 45 hours.

    If you manually wind it fully, it should start running immediately, sometimes you might need to give it a shake though.
