Thanks. mine goes to the same point as shown in your pics...

Thanks for the response ED-209. i can't take photos now but the indicator on mine is at the same position as that shown in your pic when it is fully wound.

So, I wonder why AP has done decided to make the indicator such that it will never reach the top...

Also, it seems that when the watch is not in use, i.e. the spring is not being wound, it takes several hours before the indicator starts going down. This seems to suggest that when a fully wound spring is unwinding the first 20% or so, the unwinding does not move the indicator. The indicator starts moving downwards when the 'charge' has dropped to about 80%.

If this is the case, i am just thinking whether if i wind the watch until the indicator stops at 80% and i stop winding then, is the watch fully wound? or would i have to continue winding it another 20 or so rounds 'blindly' (because the indicator would have stopped going upwards) to have the watch fully wound.

I know all this doesn't really affect my enjoyment of this beautiful piece, but just thought that it'd be good to know....

Thanks and cheers
