    Hey gang,

    I recently had a Mark II restored by Omega. It's great, and I love it. I have noticed that when windings, the crown spins backwards when I let go of it. I pinch it, wind it, let it go to wind it again and it spins backwards about: half a turn.

    Is that normal?

    Thx,

    J
