 Pooling is an industry term and can only be seen by a binocular microscope.  It refers to the way the lubricants collect on the jewels and shafts of the gears and wheels.

If it took 40 winds to get the movement to activate for that short of a cycle, and the crown was the method by which the power was getting to the spring.  Then you have major problems, that will not correct them selves.  With out having it in my hands any thing is just a guess.  I will ask my watch makers when they get to work in a couple of hours and get back to you.
