Submariner Question

I wear a Submariner as my daily so usually wearing it 4-5 days consecutively in the office. Every morning when I’m about to put the watch on I notice it stopped. Am I supposed to be setting it everyday or how long does the watch keep running when not worn?

Seems unusual to have to set it everyday. Does it need a cleaning? Never taken it before. Thanks

Don't know how long you've had it for, but would suggest taking it for a service - a Rolex shouldn't be stopping overnight after a full day's wear

Would suggest doing this before investing in a winder to keep it moving overnight - you'll likely save yourself money in the process if Rolex can find a fault and fix it

IB life: I'm wearing my automatic watch but it's running out of battery because I never move from my desk.

It's literally happened to me before during the middle of the day during my Associate years. I got a electronic winder that I put my watch on at night which rotates it and "charges" the power overnight.

Be excellent to each other, and party on, dudes.
