Oil Change
Hi Mally
The Cal. 3120 inside Royal Oak 15400 has 60 hours of power reserve when fully wound. From what you just described, it seems there is nothing wrong with the watch since the watch is working properly when you manually wind it. From my past experience, there could be couple reasons:
1. It's been 3~4 years since your last service, depending on how often you wear your watch, the oil may have dried up already. The watch just needs to be cleaned and lubricated again.
2. Since you are on vacation, there might be a chance that your arm just isn't moving as frequently as when you are in the office working. If your arm isn't moving, then the rotor isn't winding.

Move it to the wrist you use most
If you are right handed try it on your right wrist for a few days and see if it winds better. Or your beer glass lifting hand. I’ve had this happen with a couple watches - and yes, sadly for me, it took a service to solve. Or stop caring and just wind it,...
I don‘t think that the malfunction depends on the daily activities of the wearer.
The movement of the 15400 is inside my ROO 15707 CE (four years old, serviced by AP in Nov. 2018) as well. In February this year - after days full of activities - it stopped working only about half an hour after I had laid the watch down for the night. Th...
Frequet serving needed
The movement might look robust, oil sinks are very small and can not apply sufficient oil in jewels for 3120&3126 and so frequent servicing will be necessary to sustain watch functions and parts quality are also not that good according to my local repaire...
