Dealing with a malfunctioning watch winder can be quite frustrating. However, as we've discussed, many common issues can be resolved through simple troubleshooting.
Start by checking the power supply and verifying the TPD (turns per day) settings; these initial steps can often restore your winder to working order.
Cons of Using Watch Winders
Cost: Watch winders can be quite costly, particularly if you choose higher-end models.
Limited Compatibility: Not all watches are suitable for use with watch winders.
Power Consumption: Watch winders need a power source to function, and some models can use a significant amount of electricity.
No, a watch winder cannot damage your watch. The movement of your watch requires a minimum number of turns per day (TPD) to keep it functioning properly.
They Will Extend The Life Of Your Watch
If your watch is continuously running, it should self-lubricate to enhance its durability. A well-designed watch can last up to 150 years if it is kept wound regularly.
Repairing Everyday Watches
In general, if repair costs are less than 50% of the replacement cost, consider repairing. If repair costs exceed 75% of the replacement cost, replacement is likely more logical, unless sentimental value overrides the cost.
If you don't wear your automatic watch for a few days, it will stop running on its own. You don't need to worry about winding your automatic watch unless you plan to wear it every day.
Similar to manual watches, you can leave your automatic watch unwound for extended periods without causing any damage to the movement.
The battery is the most common issue when it comes to watch repairs, and it's also one of the easiest to fix.
When you bring your watch in for repair, the technician will typically check the battery first. In a quartz watch, the battery is easily accessible with a pair of tweezers, making it a quick and affordable repair.
