Starting to look into a classic dive watch. The Seiko I'm looking at is auto-wind, w/o manual winding ability. Anyone using such a watch in rotation? Seems like it might be a major hassle having to get it going and resetting date and time.
 
Seiko has the "professional" Prospex, but not with the exact look, I think.

I rotate watches almost daily and I pretty much only wear mechanical. I have never found resetting the time and date a hassle. If the watch has a quick set date, it takes maybe 30 seconds to do. Personally I wouldn't call that a major hassle. Another choice is to get a watch winder and keep it on that. There are arguments for and against them though.
 
Now resetting a moonphase watch is a hassle which is why I sold mine.
