Keeping it running
- On an average day an automatic gains roughly 4 hours of reserve per hour on the wrist, so about 12 hours of wear fills the Orient F6N43. Desk days charge more slowly.
- Most automatics can also be wound by the crown. If yours has stopped, a few dozen turns gets it going before you put it on.
- Off the wrist it stops about 50 hours after it was last full.
- If it does stop, don't set the date between 9pm and 3am. Here's why.
Never let it stop
