Panerai been sitting idle-winding

Hello all, my first panerai a used 00560 has been sitting in its box unwound at my parents place overseas for 5 months - I have now managed to collect the watch and have wound it around 50 times - but still it wont start

Should I keep winding? am slightly nervous of winding it constantly, I haven't reached the point where its not possible to wind it further

thanks

That does not sound normal. Try winding a bit more. I usually get to 70 or 80 winds until I feel the tension spring tighten up. But, 50 winds should have got that movement moving. May need a service already

On some of my watches I give the a couple of good shakes and that gets them going. Not very sophisticated but it does work at times.

Pam00560 is a manual winding. Shakes does not work in this case
