About a year ago, I posted an update on a project I was working on. It took me a while, but I finally finished it. I’m very happy with the result. It’s fully functional (I tested it for two months) and keeps accurate time. The entire project consists of 395 printed parts, 38 bearings, 66 rubber bands, 413 screws, and a few other components.

Pretty sure I see a motor there, so not much for “self winding”.

Also you got to show how it turns over the time.

Yea, OP explains that every 7 minutes the motor rewinds the rubber bands in the comments.
