Clocks that have to be wound by hand fall into two categories, those that have to be wound every day, and those that have to be wound at longer intervals. Those that have to be wound at longer intervals are usually either 8 day clocks, or 31 day clocks. What it means is that the clock is designed to be wound the same time of the month each month. If you had a 31 day clock, you could wind it on the first of every month and know that it would last to the next month no matter what month it was. 8 day clocks are designed to be wound every 7 days.
