Icon5 Watch Winder for Oyster Perpetual

I recently purchased an automatic, BI-directional watch winder for my Oyster Perpetual Datejust watch, but am unsure of the Turns Per Day I should set it at. There are 4 options:

1) About 342 Turns Per Day (interval: 33 sec. rotation/ 12 min. pause)
2) About 864 Turns Per Day (interval: 10 min. rotation/ 90 min. pause)
3) About 1080 Turns Per Day (interval: 30 min. rotation/3 hours pause)
4) About 2160 Turns Per Day (interval: 1 hour rotation/ 3 hours pause)

Anyone know which setting is best for this particular watch?

It only takes a Rolex about 650 turns per day to maintain a state of wind.. Choose the one that keeps your watch wound without it stopping on the winder..
