GMT 16750 movement question

Something I just noticed with this watch, after pulling it out of the safe and winding it (after sitting a week or so) prior to setting the time and strapping it on, it will wind easily for about 10-12 winds, then it kinda binds up and won't wind anymore. So what's the issue?

In the past, I could wind it 25 or 30 times, no problems. It was serviced at RSC BH just before they closed.
Thanks for any ideas.

Lube in barrel is hardening up and or your winding and auto device is lacking lube and heating up and then locking up. I would have it looked at. Rik
