Also, the watch will only have as much power in it as you put into it each day. If you are an avid book reader or spend a lot of time at the keyboard, you are not winding your watch, so the actual amount of power in it may be only a few hours.

If you are ill, or somewhat sedentary, you may need to wind it up every week or two. Or, it may just be lacking lubrication at key friction areas and needs a Clean, Oil, and Adjustment Service.

It will actually stop while on my wrist then take it off and wind it again?
