Not really a Rolex-question, but...

Maybe out of order, but here it goes;

As a Rolex user, I'm also fond of other brands both cheap and more expensive. A GMT-watch that I really enjoy with an ETA movement shows the following behaviour;

Tuseday morning 7.00 am - fully wound (60 turns) and set.
Tue 17.00 - Took it of
Wed 03.50 - Put it on
Wed 19.00 - Took it off
Thur 07.00 - Put it on
Thur 17.00 - Took it off

Didn't wear it Friday, Friday at 21.00 - the watch stopped.

I did a test with the watch fully wound and not moving it = 47h (about)

Does this sound normal to you? This suggest that the wearing tue-thu didn't manage to wound it fully. Since I'm a pilot I don't move around a lot, but still I'm active between flights.

My Rolex seems to hold up it's power reserve much better. I really don't know what ETA movement it is, but again it does have an GMT-hand.

Thanks a lot and again sorry for the off topic question...
