Yes many watches will be the same on winders the 3186 is only a very slightly modded 3185.On a winder the watches are in one position only,while on the wrist where they belong they will be in many positions.Thats why chronometers are tested in 5 different positions gravity is the main culprit regarding accuracy with any mechanical watch.
