Actually one question - when I'm not actively wearing the watch, how much time would you let pass before winding it? If inactive, should I wind the watch every week or every month? Not that it would, but could it sit in a box for 6 months? I've read that the new lubrication that's used now is a bit more forgiving but not sure what the best practices are
