Maybe, maybe not... if your watch has many comlications and is difficult to set (moon phase, perpetual analog calendar, etc) then a winder may be a good idea.

However, if all it shows is the time then it only takes a second to shake it a few times and get it going then set the time. Same if its a time/date...

Not to mention any decent automatic has a reserve, which should last about 40hrs or more.
