Rolex watches are, indeed, self-winding. A century ago they did make watches that one had to hand wind, however.

How long does a Rolex run?

They are made to have a 40 hour spring power supply when wound completely. If you are having problems with your watch, take it to a certified Rolex watchmaker.

What is watch winder and what is it's purpose?

A watch winder is a device used to help automatic watches remain in good condition when they are not worn. When automatic watches are worn, the moving weight inside of them winds the wind through the force of gravity as the watch is moved on your hand. However, when the watch is not worn, the moving weight cannot move around to wind your watch and lubricate the internal devices. Therefore, the purpose the of the winder is to wind the watch and keep it in condition.

Does Rolex have any mens watches under $1300 available?

If you comb a seller vetting platform*, for $1,300 you can find a worn out vintage Rolex that still performs decently by today's standards.I would recommend to also look at Tudor, whose watches have had a lower appreciation on the used market even though their external components are made by Rolex. For less than $1,300 you can find a Tudor watch in a great condition!* I cannot explicitly state their name, but if you search for the digits 24 preceded by the word Chrono you should be able to find the platform.

Do automatic watches stop when one takes it off overnight or will it carry enough energy to see it through to the morning?

"The fully-wound mainspring in a typical watch can store enough energy reserve for roughly two days, allowing automatics to keep running through the night while off the wrist. Usually automatic watches can also be wound manually by turning the crown, so the watch can be kept running when not worn, and in case the wearer's wrist motions are not sufficient to keep it wound automatically." -- Wikipedia Also, if you plan to have it off for more than a night, there are special winding display cases you can purchase, to keep your watch in good condition and time.
