I am wondering if anything will go wrong over time by leaving a watch such as the B01 unwound and sitting in a box for extended periods of time, only taking it out to manually wind it once in a great while. |

You should try to at least wind it and use the chrono monthly to keep the oils dispersed properly. |

Modern oils are designed to stay where they are put, but over time they will migrate away from the friction points if the watch isn't run. |

Thank you. There's a lot to learn about watches such as this. I have already found out a lot by researching the forum. It's cool to find so many people in one place that like Breitlings! |
