The watch is only 2 1/2 years old. I wear it as my daily. But I noticed a couple times it has wound down completely. Granted I have a desk job. And there are some days it might not get much wrist time. And I’m sure and a day here and there with no wrist time at all. But after three or four weeks, the power reserve seems to wind down completely. Even with fairly regular wrist time and semi daily wear. Wondering if this is an issue requiring service.

While I’m at it, should I be winding the watch until the crown won’t turn anymore? It seems to take forever. And I don’t think I wind it quite that much. Maybe around 50 rotations but not until it stops.
