The power reserve indicator lets you know the winding state of the mainspring.
After removing the watch from your wrist, observe the power reserve indicator to check if the watch has stored enough power to keep running until the next time you wear it. If necessary, wind the mainspring.
(To prevent the watch from stopping, wind the mainspring to store the excess power that will allow the watch to run for extra time.)
