Exactly as Rik says... All Rolex automatics have a slipping bridle mainspring (clutch), and so you can't really over-wind one with a winder...
However, if you set your winder so it is always "winding" the watch, you will be slipping the mainspring over and over inside the mainspring barrel and it could result in premature wear of the inside of the brass barrel......
