Just want to get the layman term, does it mean before winding, the needle already in the "F" or "+" position??

siodee,

It is not a power reserve indicator. It is used to regulate the watch. If the watch is running fast, you will regulate it (needle) to the 'S' and if slow, push the needle to the 'F'.
