What exactly is the problem? You wind but the hands doesn't move?
Try to wind until you feel some resistance, that's the indication of fully wind.

K..this is what happened...I did not wear my watch 2 days ago, so today when I see my watch, it stops ticking[which is perfectly normal since it is an automatic watch]....so...i took up the Manual provided and I read it...so the manual said that to re-power the watch, pull out the crown to "position 1", so i did as what is written...and they also mentioned "Never wind it fully, 5 - 10 turns should be sufficed]..so...I wind if clockwise[as stated in the manual] to around 9 turns.....so then...the watch starts to tick......however...when the "second hand" reaches around the 56th second in the dial, it stops momentarily for about 1 minutes at the same position[means it stops ticking there]...then....after around 1 minutes....the "second hand" continue to tick again.....and reaches around the 56th second again...it stop momentarily AGAIN for abou 1 minute and this process had been repeating for the past 5 hours....

hmm, that's abnormal then. sounds like not fully wind for me. observe few days, if problem persist, you have to send it back.

It is kinda weird huh..each time the watch stops ticking...when i try to unscrew the crown...it ticks again immediately instead of waiting for quite sometimes before it ticks again and as usual...stops after one cycle again

And by the way, when it says wind clockwise means the crown i have to use my time "push up" using my thumb rite? Cause i'm afraid i wind it the other way round and when i wind it....sorta got some "metal rubbing" sound and harder to wind it this way..like got some resistance @@ but when i find it the other way round i hear "clicking sound"

value? entry level IWC and Omega not any better than Tissot/Louis Erard/Epos.
Ball and Tag got better value in Msia? U tried pre own store? the value just as weak as the above brands.
sell private maybe better, U got fools buying them at higher price. Its like ebay today. Tons of ppl bid for the sick of bidding.
