Hi guys, I only use my rolex on the weekends and was wondering when Im not wearing the watch should I leave it on the winder or leave it alone and set the time and date everytime I use it?

Your preference, both ways are good.

Don't think it matters either way, if you don't mind setting it every weekend I'd go that route.

Cannot understand why you only wear your watch at weekends but myself not a fan of watchwinders.I just cannot see the point of them with any watch with just a simple date complication, it only take seconds to wind and reset.

I use a winder since I got watches without quickset. It helps so to say...

Some people say that winders tare more on the watch and that is probably true. Still I prefer to have my four watches fully winded and with correct day and date. Call it lazy or something. :)

I've got a winder but don't use it anymore. Non-quicksets and multi-function watches can be a pain to set, but I'm a believer that running the watches 365 days and 24 hours/day is a lot of wear on a little machine. I wouldn't do it with my car, either.
