Can a Clock Be Over Wound?
If the winding procedure above is followed, then a clock in good operating condition cannot be over wound, there are probably other reasons it will not run.
Many people have been told at some point in their life that a clock can be wound too tight, and that probably extends to a situations where a clock that is badly worn will not run when it is fully wound. So, if your clock has not been serviced in many years, and is fully wound, but will not run, then in all probability it needs service.
