Question regarding autowinding on my 1163 issues...

So, I have my 1163 on my winder and I don't know why it can't seem to hold it's power reserve like my other Autavias... this model uses the Calibre 11-i... Can anyone shed some thoughts about this? I've been told these weren't the greatest back in the days and I'm thinking the watches of the time didn't take into account autowinders...
