Watchwinder

Watchwinder - Misterchrono Belgium

An automatic watch works by means of an internal mechanism that winds itself up using the movements of your wrist. The winder keeps the mechanism in motion by rotating it regularly. This makes it a very practical accessory when the watch is not being worn.

The permanence of the movements becomes crucial when your Garde-Temps is equipped with numerous complications. As a reminder, a complication refers to a function additional to the time and date display. Complications can include a chronograph, a perpetual calendar, a power reserve, a moon phase, a world time zone, and so on. While these complications add value to your watch, they also add complexity to the architecture of its mechanism. By placing your mechanical automatic watch in a winder, you will be helping to preserve the operation of all the complications.

Why use a winder for an automatic watch ?

Placing your automatic watch in a winder is not just about getting the right time when you wear it on your wrist. The real benefits of a watch winder are not calculated in minutes or seconds, but in euros... 

  • A winder keeps your watch accurate : By allowing the mechanisms of automatic watches that are not worn to function, a winder helps to keep your watch accurate. 

  • A winder helps preserve the mechanism : an automatic watch uses a mechanism that itself uses oils to lubricate the moving parts. If you don't wear your watch for a long time, the oils can congeal. A winder therefore keeps the lubricant in motion, perfectly greasing the moving parts and prolonging the life of the watch mechanism.

  • A watch winder lets you enjoy several watches : If you own several automatic watches, it's impossible to wear them all at the same time... A watch winder lets you choose certain models more often, depending on what you want, without affecting the smooth running of watches left at rest.

  • A watch winder enhances a watch collection : Watch winders are useful accessories that in no way detract from the beauty of the watches they house and protect. A watch winder is an unobtrusive case that enhances the aesthetics of your watches.
