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

 
 

Sorry this is late, but the Rolex submariner is an automatic watch meaning it is wound by movement of your wrist. It dying every morning is a little unusual, probably means it doesn’t move too often. If you want you can invest in a watch winder to run overnight to keep the movement winding so you no longer need to set the watch in the morning.

 

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.
