I recently had my 18238 overhauled by a very well known vintage watch specialty shop in Pasadena, CA.

I have noticed when my watch stops and I go to wind it to start it, just to get it initially going, I have to wind it 65-70 times before it will even start.

Is this normal ?

Thank you.

tap it with your finger after a half dozen winds.

Are you serious ? if so, tap what ?

Yes, you can tap it, but ideally you wouldn’t have to do that. I would be interested in seeing the beat error.
