Breitling watch winder

Posted on 9 September 2020 at 10:12 AM

If you have one or more automatic watches, a watch winder is a very handy and useful accessory. The watch winder provides the automatic watches with energy so that the watches are always ready to wear. The watches in the watch winder are wound and run on the correct date and date. You can take the watch out and wear it right away. This is different if you are not wearing an automatic watch. It stops after +- 32 to 40 hours. After the watch has stopped and you want to wear it again, you must first reset the time and date. This is inconvenient and time consuming, especially if you want to quickly wear the watch and go to work, a birthday or exercise.

There are many differences in watches, for example in size and weight. You would like a watch winder that fits your watch a bit. The most important thing is that the watch winder winds your watch properly and safely. What should you pay attention to if you want to buy a watch winder for your automatic watches? Suppose you have a Breitling watch, which watch winder is the best to buy?

Breitling watch

The beautiful Swiss watch brand Breitling appeals to everyone's imagination. This brand produces high-end watches that are highly regarded worldwide. Quality, finesse and beautiful designs make Breitling one of the most popular watch brands in the world. For many boys and men a watch from this beautiful brand is a dream. For some this dream comes true, many others will continue to dream of such a beautiful watch.

Most Breitling watches are automatic. This means that the movement is supplied with energy that causes the hands to rotate, indicating the correct time and date. So you no longer need a battery. The nice thing about an automatic timepiece is that it is one of the purest forms of watch technology. It is a wonderful technique that has been used by the very best watch brands for many decades. You can think of Rolex, IWC, Omega, Tag Heuer and Zenith.

Unfortunately, Breitling watches are not cheap. It is often a considerable expense and that is why you are extra careful with it. You certainly don't want the watch to stop every time because then you have to open the crown to wind the watch again and set the time and date. This is a risk because the crown is one of the most vulnerable parts of an automatic watch. In short, use a watch winder for your Breitling watch. Not only because it is handy, but also because it benefits the preservation and maintenance of your watch.

Which type of watch winder is suitable for a Breitling watch?

A Breitling watch is generally a bit heavier than other watches. The watch cases are somewhat larger and the automatic technology inside the case is somewhat heavier than quartz (battery) technology. The result is that a Breitling watch weighs a bit more. This is important when choosing a good watch winder to wind the Breitling watch properly and safely. The watch is placed on a holder in the watch winder. This holder rotates so that the watch obtains energy. But if a watch is heavier, it gives more downward pressure, which can cause the holder to get out of position. The result is that the watch holder no longer rotates neatly but more in an oval shape. This is not the intention. The solution is to choose a watch winder with a strong motor and a good holding system that can easily wind a heavier watch. Choose a watch winder with a Japanese, German or even Swiss motor. These motors are well known and have enough power to turn a Breitling watch properly. In the longer term, these will also continue to operate with a low sound level. You will enjoy it for a long time!

Breitling watches are often a bit larger than other watches. That is why it is important that you choose a watch winder with a good flexible watch holder, so that the watch fits well on it. A good watch holder can be set per watch in terms of strap length and is large enough for watches with a case diameter of up to 55 mm. One of the most important aspects of a good watch holder is that it clicks into the watch winder. As a result, the watch holder with the watch on it cannot simply fall out of the watch winder. The watch and the watch winder itself could be damaged by this and that is what you certainly don't want. A good watch winder, think of the Benson Black Series watch winders, have watch holders that you click into the watch winder. When you want to remove a watch, press on both sides of the holder so that you can take the holder out of the watch winder. This is a safe and convenient system.
