How to use and set up watch winder correctly

Many people don't know the winding direction of their watch model when they buy a watch winder. If your watch is unidirectional, you need to know whether the automatic winding is clockwise or anticlockwise. If the rotation direction is wrong, it will cause the wristwatch unable to wind and has no power! If your watch is bi-directional, you can use the way to switch the left and right. Today, I'd like to share with you a detailed explanation of the movement direction of all wrist watch brands, so that you can use the megger more properly!

Direction: CW is to set the optional top chord clockwise, CCW means to rotate the top chord anticlockwise, and the bidirectional top chord can be set to automatic. Take Rolex as an example, it can be wound both clockwise and anticlockwise. Taking Patek Philippe 324 movement as an example, it is CCW that needs to set the meter swing instrument to wind counterclockwise. Both can be bidirectional, and can be rotated automatically in both directions.

There are two points to note when using the watch winder

1. Before putting the watch in, the watch itself should run normally, and it is better to have more than half of the kinetic energy, because the watch shaker maintains the watch running, and the stopped watch may not be able to drive it;

2. The steering of the meter shaker should conform to the design of the watch.

A marriage between classic watchmaking and modern design. Combining the motion of a tourbillon with the functionality of a winder. The orbit gyro watch winder is unique in style and is a real spectacle for the eye.
