I got tired of setting watches in my collection since I rarely wear the same watch two days in a row. If someone asks for time I look at my phone anyway. So I treat my vintage watches as bracelets. If someone points to the watch showing the wrong time ( which has never happened) I’ll say it’s set to a different time zone. Am I the only one who does this? I also want to protect the skin on my fingers, some watches require force to wind them daily.

    I just got all my watches back from the bank safe and set them in just 8 minutes. I have 22 watches with some of them being perpetual and annual calendars. It really is not that big of a deal

    You know there are watchwinders for manual watches too ? They are more expensive then regular winders but I’m guessing it’s no problem for someone who’s fingers hurt from the crown
