Why buy an automatic watch winder?
This can be a wise decision for any watch enthusiast . But before we discuss why you should consider buying a watch winder, it's important to understand what an automatic watch is.
An automatic watch is a watch with mechanical movements that operates using energy generated by the wearer's wrist movements . Unlike quartz watches, which use a battery to power the hand movement, automatic watches are powered by a self-winding system with a power reserve .
This system uses a rotor , an oscillating weight that spins freely inside the watch case and moves with every movement of the wrist. This movement activates a self-winding mechanism that winds the watch's mainspring .
So, as long as the watch is worn regularly , it will wind itself automatically and maintain its energy and accuracy without requiring manual winding . However, there may be times when you do not wear your watch every day, or you may own several automatic watches that you do not all use at the same time.
This is where a watch winder comes in, a small device that keeps an automatic watch running even when you're not wearing it. It mimics the movements of your wrist by gently rotating the watch on a cushion inside a silent motor automatic watch winder. This will automatically wind your timepiece, ready to wear , without the risk of it stopping or becoming out of adjustment.
An automatic winder for Rolex is a great buy, ideal and useful, it can be placed in a safe or in your decoration. Also compatible with other brands of watches like Omega, Vacheron Constantin, Patek Philippe. It automatically winds your watches while protecting them with tempered glass and a silent motor .

When should you wind your automatic watch?
