Should we only "prime" and not fully wind our auto Rolexes?

Rolex user guide is clear about this a minimum of 25 turns for adequate partial winding. On another note, manual winding before wearing a watch that is stopped is improatant to maintain a healthy amplitude which would actually increase service life of the movement many might not know this!

Just don’t use the crown while still on the wrist.

I only wind until the seconds hand starts ticking. After that, I let the rotor do what it's designed for.

If i know i am only going to wear my watch,for say just a day, for maybe an occasion,then i will just get it going and let my wrist wind it. This doesn't wind the watch fully as i only need it for a day. If i am wearing it for longer periods then i will wind it fully. No point having the watch going for days sitting in the watch roll.
