Thought I would post pics of my Dad’s watch and mine.

Here are my Dad’s watch and mine side by side.
1969 & 1979 respectively.

I have a question for the assembled multitudes. The two above watches are basically relegated to rare dress occasions. I have been leaving them locked in my safe on their winders. Would they be better just left to lose energy and just wind them on the odd rare events I wear them or leave them spit roasting ?

Thanks gang

Great looking air, very classy! Personally I'm on the fence with regards to winders. If you don't wear it often then I would just wind it and wear it as your go.No real benefit to keeping it wound IMO.
