·So I have an automatic winding question for the Seamaster 8800. I want to start out by saying I have only had this watch for 3 weeks and at this point I am finding this watch very hard to criticize. I love this thing. However, I feel that when wearing it, I don't feel it is charge like I thought. Let me explain. On 2 different occasions I wound the watch to maximum and then I wore the watch 5 or six hours a day (don't take the watch to work). First time I just wore the watch normally. Moving my wrist in a normal fashion. After only 6 days the watch stopped. So I decided to try this test again. This time after a full wind (about 50 winds) I wore the watch with the attempt of moving my wrist to keep it wound. This time it lasted for 8 days. I also have a 2009 GMT with 48 hours of power reserve and I don't remembering that ever happening to it. So my question is, does this happen to other owners of the Seamaster. Does anyone have another watch with a Seamaster to compare? Is there a way to test this to see if there is an issue? Finally, if I wore the watch for 14 to 16 hours a day, would it fully charge with the movement of your wrist? Sorry for the long post..
