How lazy can you be with an automatic watch?

[Somewhatfoolish]

Is it feasible to be so lazy that an automatic watch will stop working, or would you have to do something like lying in bed all day with your wrist tied down?

Thinking of becoming a complete couch potato?

You really would have to be pretty still for an auto to completely discharge it's power from a full charge, which would typically be circa 40 hours.

It's hypothetical, if I were then I'd just move it onto my right wrist instead and have no trouble.

Strangely, I heard from a care nurse that it is well know in retirement homes that peoples watches stop due to lack of sufficient movement. That excludes those with Parkinson's of course

Wore my new Seiko 5 for the first time immediately before driving for 2 hours. Was obviously too inactive during an early part of the journey because it had lost 20 mins by the time I got there so obviously had stopped completely at least once. Been fine since!

If I put a watch on in the morning, while getting ready, it's usually enough to mean it doesn't run out. I suppose if you don't shave, then you could a problem, Sulley.
