Just received my Orange Sea Viper. Beautiful watch. Can it be hand wound?

So I just unlock the crown and turn the crown clockwise and for how long? Sorry for my stupidy. My first watch with a Swiss movement.

That is correct, you can't over wind it, crank it 10 - 12 times and you will be good to go

You can also wind it up to 20 or 25 times. You need not fear overwinding it. Just make sure you close down the crown securely after you wind it.
Big Congrats on your choice of a watch

Thank-you for the info. Yes, the Orsa is the nicest watch I've owned. I was mostly into Seikos but decided to change. I have also ordered a Marathon MSar, due in Monday. Can't wait for it either.
