Icon20 Ddii

I have a DDII that I keep on a winder (purchase from a forum member) and it does not stay wound. The winder is always winding and is very active going clockwise and counter clockwise. Has this happened to any one else? I also have a GMT II-c that I wear most of the time and it never stops!! Bill

Could you elaborate a little more?
What kind of winder?
How many turns per day?
Is your watch fully wound when you put it on the winder?

That's the big thing, i think most winders require the watch to be approx 80% wound to keep it going.
