In the end, I think it the history of the mechanic that causes you a problem. The original mechanic of winding was developed to indicate that the clock should keep running and letting everyong know why.

Now you have two things to communicate:
1. Stop the clock.
2. The clock starts on the ready.

Clearly #1 needs to get communicated first because it matters first. But since your signal for #2 is a wind signal, it would seem even more confusing if you did it in the proper order of stop clock and then signal when the clock will next start with a winding motion.

The best solution would be to change the signal for #2 so that it does use the winding of the arm which traditionally means to have the clock run.
