Why do you need a watch winder?

Posted on 22 June 2019 at 12:06 PM

A watch collection of automatic watches is not complete without a watch winder. Every automatic watch needs movement to be supplied with energy. When an automatic watch comes to a standstill, this can have negative consequences for the watch. An example of this is an inaccuracy in time and date display. But the oil is also not properly distributed by movement during a longer standstill. As a watch lover, this is of course not what you want. We often make the comparison with a car. If you put a car in a garage for a long time, it will cause problems when you want to drive. If you drive and maintain the car well, you can enjoy it for years. In a sense, this also applies to automatic watches.

Normally the movement of the wrist ensures that an automatic watch keeps running. But what if you don't wear your watch? Or if you have an entire collection that you cannot logically wear at the same time? Then a watch winder is the desired accessory! A good watch winder ensures that the watch is wound correctly. As mentioned earlier, this also ensures that the oil supply remains optimal and that the watch is protected against wear and damage. With a watch winder you are also immediately provided with a safe storage place for your automatic watch(es). Many watch winders also have a storage function for other jewelry and watches.

A watch winder also offers the possibility to present your watch collection in a beautiful and luxurious way. With all the original, luxury and unique watch winders that are available on the market, there is always one that fits perfectly with your collection and interior. Because a watch winder is not only an indispensable accessory in terms of functionality, it is also a valuable aesthetic addition to your collection! A watch winder that shines beautiful LED light on the revolving watches is already a spectacular sight in itself.

Watch winders are available in various capacities. You can go for a watch winder with space for a single watch, two watches, four or six watches, but watch winders are also available for enthusiasts with a large collection. Brands such as Benson and Orbita offer watch winders for 12, 16 or even 32 automatic watches.

Different watch winders are designed in such a way that winding your watches is really worth watching. There are even those whose designs are inspired by different forms of art or which have been designed in consultation with artists, such as watch winders from Luwima and Kunstwinder as brands. There are also several original ways of winding that you as a watch lover will certainly be charmed by! Bernard Favre is a good example of this. This Swiss brand produces watch winders in which the watch is wound in a three-dimensional movement. Unique and a beautiful sight!

You buy a watch winder when you want the best for your automatic watch(es). The device is not only functional in terms of excitement, it is also aesthetically a beautiful accessory that stands out and always is good for a topic of conversation.
