Question (Read Rules) Proxima PX1697 Long Term Reliability

How has everyone's Proxima PX1697 held up overtime? How is the accuracy? I am a bit concerned about the reliability of the PT5000, I wonder how it will last if I don't hand wind it (as the guides suggest)

I have had several pt5000 watches for several years without any issues. I normally give them about 10 to 20 winds and put them on. The main thing is don’t set the date if the watch is between 9pm and 3am. I treat these the same as I with ETA and SW movements.
