Post subject: | Watch winders Pros and cons |
Guys I would like your input on the use of watchwinders. I have a few automatic movements and I wind them all ocasionally and let them run. I was told that this was sufficent to keep them excersized, for lack of a better word. I would like to hear you opionions. I haven't been a member of this fourm for very long but I love to collect watches. I have heard pros and cons on the watch winder issue. What do you think? |

If you manually wind them you run the risk of wearing the crown on the very long run. Also its a pain. If you dont wind at all you might have the oils stiffen up. |

Personally I reckon it's definitely worth having one. |

I wouldn't see a con in owning a winder. If you own more than two watches, it's tough to keep them wound wearing one every other day. ~Brian |
