Could You Use an Automatic Watch?
Who wouldn’t want an automatic watch? I mean, I’m pretty sure you’d go crazy if you had to sit there all day, moving the hands on your clock every second to keep the time current. One Mississippi, move. One Mississippi, move. One Mississippi, move. Who wants to do that all day long? And who will keep your watch going when you sleep?
So, I’m pretty sure you’d want an automatic watch.
Of course, that’s not what is really meant by automatic! An automatic watch is a mechanical watch that is self-winding. That means, instead of winding it, it winds itself every time you move your wrist.
That means automatic watches won’t work for dead people. But, on the other hand, dead people don’t generally ask the time, so it’ll probably work out.
But, what happens if you don’t wear your watch daily? Well, in that case, you can buy a watch winder that will take care of moving the watch for you, you know, on your days off from watch wearing. This would also come in handy if you have seven automatic watches, one for each day of the week. The watch winder will then move the other six watches so they’ll keep on ticking and be ready for their day of the week to be worn.
You know, I think I’ll just stick with a battery-operated watch. Much less hassle. Maybe just keep an automatic watch on hand just in case of the apocalypse. Then again, after the apocalypse, how worried will you be about the actual time? Okay, I’d still want to know…
I had a self-winding watch that my wonderful hubby bought me. It is really pretty. I wore it a lot, but then a period of time came where I didn’t want to wear it so nothing would happen to it and I didn’t have a self-winder so it just kind of ran down. Now I don’t know what to do with it - it sits in my jewelry box, gathering dust.
Guess I’ll have to look some stuff up and see what can be done about it. Hi dcr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
I have a Hollydale Watch that runs on cold fusion. It also powers the entire city … “what a money maker!”
