I am aware many are divided about whether we should use watch winders for automatics and keep our manual watches wound from 'time-to-time', but I wonder what people think about storing of watches. While I keep mine in a safe, recently I was told you shoul... 

right. Of course I do not abuse my JLCs, but I do not care too much how to care/store. The JLCs we have will outlive us way long anyway. lol Best, Jean

And wind them at least once a month... BUT the best place for a watch is on our wrist... Best, Nicolas

but you cannot wear them all at once.... Why don't you like the watchwinders Nicolas? Cheers

Watches are like us, they need some time to work, some time to rest. I don't think it is a good thing to let them perpetually work. When you don't wear a watch, let it in its place, in a box, suedine, whatever it is. Just wind it once a month, and it will... 

that the watch will last long(er) if it works every now and then instead of standing still for years. lubricants will lubricate what need be and things will be fine. servicing every 3y seems a bit much especially if the watch does not run very often. the ... 

It is very simple. One single pusher does synchronize all the datas, even the moonphase, so you don't need to go and search the good moonphase to set it! Actually, I have this problem on the PP 5712, as there is no synchronization at all, which is normal ... 

It is a pleasure to wind your manual watch- that might be the reason I prefer manual watches over automatic lol (although I do believe that they are more accurate) I see your point about watch winders, but there are some arguments for them too- practicali... 

If you never wind your watches, this may be problematic... But at an AD Window display, there may be much more probleamtic factors... For example: Is the display window directly exposed to Sun? Are the display windows not too warm due to the lights used ?... 

the watch in the window of an AD that would be exposed to the sun in summer and, subsequently the lubricant inside could age much faster than the same watch in a drawer at home or on the wrist of a happy person. (an interesting article here www.oilana...

Yo Nic, shouldn't perpetuals run uninterrupted til 2100? I know it's a pain if I need to push my 3940, hey it's a PP! We feel the pain when we paid for it, and now we have to feel it to push it? we're a confused lot I do agree a watch needs a rest, I wond... 

And yes, theorically, you should do it every 3 years... But depending on how often you wear it, light, warmth, etc...you may give it later for a whole service. Hopefully! Best, and enoy your 3940! Nicolas
