Frequently Asked Questions About Watch Winders
Your watch is placed on a rotating cushion. The purpose of the winder is to simulate the movement of your wrist. This movement keeps the rotor and oil in your watch moving.
This allows you to maintain the quality of your watch throughout the day.
An automatic watch must be kept in motion regularly to maintain its accuracy. When it remains stationary for too long, the watch oil can congeal and the internal parts can wear out prematurely. An automatic watch winder avoids these problems by simulating the natural movements of the wrist, thus preserving the accuracy and longevity of your timepiece.
An automatic watch needs 600 revolutions per day on average. The older your watch is, the more revolutions it will need per day. When your watch is new, 500 revolutions per day is more than enough.
Our watch winders fit all straps and dials. When there is a risk that the winder is too small, it is noted in the product sheet.
Your watch can remain rotating for 12 hours a day. The watch winders are calibrated and programmed while respecting the rest times.
No. A quality automatic watch winder, like those offered by Rotation Horlogère, protects your watch by preventing frequent stopping and starting of the mechanism, thus reducing internal wear.
