I just had a very interesting discussion with a knowledgeable watch maker/repair shop in NH. He says not to keep automatic watches on a winder constantly as they wear out the barrel. As previous posts note, the oil today doesn't thicken and cause problems as they did "In the day". I have one with 4 slots and 8 auto's and will be turning it off. Plan to use it as a case.
