It's ok Brian, your auto-only Seiko SKX movement has the Magic Lever so doesn't need manual winding

You know I really love that watch.

When I first got it, I thought about changing the movement to a NH36 so I could manually wind …

I’m glad I left it alone

It's a 2004 14060M.

Any advice appreciated.

There are far more important things in life than worrying and fretting over 5 seconds out of 86400 seconds in a day your watch is fine.Just wear and enjoy wearing your watch for the next 20 plus years in good health now that's far more important.

No, but I'll belatedly shift this thread over to Rolex General Discussion as it doesn't really belong in Vintage.
