Tashtoo,
I discovered self-winding watches back in 1976 when I needed a wrist watch for nursing school.
My stepdad took me to this jewelry store in downtown Los Angeles back when the city looked respectable. Well, after the store owner had tried three different watches on me, all stopping within minutes of walking outside the store, he said, "I've got a stop-proof watch." I was skeptical. He placed it on my wrist and said, "Now rotate your wrist." I did and the watch started up and never once quit as long as I wore it. No batteries needed. It's called a self-winding watch and works through the normal movement of the body.
