If you can't find your watch model (or movement) in this list, you can identify your Altanus. Try winding mode. You should choose combined winding method (CW+CCW) and minimum turns per day (TPD). Then put your watch into the watch winder and check the accuracy of your watch display time after a few days. If you run behind, you need to increase the number of TPD by one level.

Can I Manually Wind my Automatic Watch With the cCrown?
It’s okay to do this once in a while, but not too often—especially if your watch has a screw-down crown.
Firstly, with crown winding, the gears and other parts of an automatic movement will wear out faster, as will the screw-in crown system, as it is not designed for frequent use. Self-winding watches should be worn for at least eight hours a day to make the most of their power reserves, so rather than letting your automatic watch's power reserve drain, invest in a simple automatic watch winder.
