How To Choose a Watch Winder
The first step in choosing your watch winder is to use our specifications database to calculate the TPD (turns per day) and rotation direction (clockwise or counterclockwise) that your watch requires, and then filter the list by winders that can accommodate your needs.
The next step is to calculate how many watches you need to wind at any one time. If you regularly wear 2-3 watches, then you need to filter our list by watch winders that have 2-3 winding modules.
You can then consider the visual features that meet your personal taste, such as design, style, size, colour, materials, and display features. They can be a good alternative to a watch box, if you choose a more decorative model.
Also, consider the power usage, programmable settings, and extra technology (such as Bluetooth connectivity and touchscreen controls). This extra functionality could make your day-to-day lives much more simple.
These watch winders can be used to organise and protect your watch as well, like a case – great for watch enthusiasts and new collectors alike.

Why Choose One?
Keep Your Investment Ready to Wear
You’ve invested in exquisite, precision-engineered pieces—symbols of craftsmanship and personal legacy. Unlike quartz models powered by a battery, automatic watches rely on regular movement to keep them running accurately.
Left idle, they lose energy, eventually stopping, and—more importantly—missing regular movement can impact the internal oils and delicate mechanics that define their performance.
If you rotate through several watches or don’t wear each one daily, a watch winder that keeps your pieces in motion ensures they’re always accurate, functional, and ready when you are.
Prevent Internal Wear and Tear
At the core of a fine watch is a network of gears, springs, and synthetic oils, all designed for precision.
When an automatic timepiece sits idle, its lubricants can thicken, leading to friction and internal wear over time. This lack of movement can even cause certain parts to seize.
Think of it like a high-performance car parked for months without being driven: it requires regular use to stay in optimal condition.
- Preserves Oils and Mechanics: A high-quality watch winder keeps your watch wound and preserves the oils in the movement, preventing them from thickening or pooling in ways that can impair performance.
- Avoids Manual Resets: Instead of resetting your timepiece manually every time you wear it, you’re safeguarding its mechanisms without added effort.
Practical Tip: Choose a setup with customizable rotation and interval settings. Different brands require varied motion patterns to maintain lubrication and accuracy. For instance, some Patek Philippe models need specific clockwise rotations, while Rolex watches perform best with bidirectional movement.
Adjusting these settings to each watch’s specifications will extend the lifespan of its internal components.
