I've recently bought an Omega Speedmaster Pro manual winder with 1861 movement.

I wont be wearing it every day and I was wondering what the best way to store it is? By that I mean should I wind it up every couple of days or only wind it when I'm going to wear it?

Thank you

Just wind it as you need it, that simple. No need to keep it wound if your not wearing it, only adds to W&T to the crown mechanism

Thank you thumbup I had emailed Omega too for their advice and they suggested that if it's not going to be worn for months on end then to wind it once a month other than that, not to worry.
