I do not know the number of rotations necessary per day for winding my watch ?

Your manufacturer, your jeweller or retailer will be happy to advise you. Please also consult our winding data.

Is it normal that the watch winder stops at a certain point in time ?

Yes, absolutely, the winder follows its indicated programme based on 4 periods of 6 hours each. Every active period is followed by a period of latency or « rest ».

By example if you choose a programm with 1400 revolutions per day:
– 350 revolutions at 4 revolutions per minute to charge the spring barrel.
– A rest time to use the power reserve.

 

A running nonstop programm is also available for the retailers. Nevertheless, in accordance with the manufacturers’ recommendation a rest time is recommended between two winding times.

When your winder is between two sets of winding time and you stop it by inadvertence, you haven’t acoustic signal. It’s normal, don’t worry. Wait 30 seconds and turn it back on. Your winder will begin a new cycle.

Why do I have the choice of several programmes ?

Because there are different types of movements. The choice of programmes covers 98% of the movements on the market.

Watch winders of the K10 collection are also suitable for antique watches.
