Just bought my 1st Rep & 1st Automatic

I've had great luck with my A7750 movements so here's a few things I have done...

Do not manual wind it. A few gentle swirls in the hand is enough to get the movement running.

NEVER, EVER, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES manually advance the date between 8 and 4. I advance the time to 6:30 AM and change the date as necessary from there.

I usually have mine serviced by a local rep friendly smith. Can't hurt

Don't use the chrono function. No need to unless you're running the 24 hours of LeMans. Leave the pushers alone.

I don't bother with winders- especially for my watches in daily rotation. Then again I'm one of those spastic dudes who changes his watch 3x a day

It might be just me but the way I look at it is that if it isn't ticking it's not encountering wear so if I'm not wearing it I just set it down.

Most of all enjoy your PAM Ferrari. You snagged one of the most spot-on reps ever produced. Novesh had one he brought to a GTG and it was simply stunning but it also was worn quite a bit. Don't be afraid of small scratches and dings- they add to the character of the watch and make it "yours"!
