Hi. Does the Oris 751 hold up nicely? Or do the teeth tend to shear off as this is a Sellita movement?
Can it stand regular or frequent winding?
The instructions say to wind (only) 12 times....sounds like more is asking for trouble!?
Thanks.

Unsure about the 751, but the 733 (Sellita SW200-1) in my Aquis has been bulletproof.

Or it just could be the minimum recommended to get it started before wearing it. Most automatics are impossible to overwind as the mainspring will slip on the barrel wall. Unless it has problems, of course.

Yes. But the thing is these sellita movements supposedly have a reputation for shearing off teeth upon winding, even with the fix they've had. That's why I'm asking if this is really still a concern. I understand Archer still warns against them.
