Rotorwind Watch Winders

Congratulations on purchasing your Rotorwind Watch Winder!

This design is unique in that it swings an automatic watch, rather than rotating it, mimicking the natural action of the wrist. Then, with a series of oscillations triggered by a single revolution of a low-current drawdrive motor, power is only needed for a few seconds every 8 or 12minutes. Extensive beta testing by hundreds of watch collectors owning a variety of automatic watches has validated the concept.

Mounting Watch on Cushion

With the bracelet or strap of the watch closed, squeeze and slide the cushion through the watch. The back of the watch should rest against the Orbita logo and the strap should lie on the flat portion of the cushion .

8/12 Minute Switch

A program switch allows you to select one of two winding cycles: 8 minute (standard program) or 12 minute (extended program). The winding cycle begins every 8 or 12 minutes based on the program selected. Many watches that wind in both directions stay fully wound on the factory preset 8 min. setting.

To select the extended program, remove the mounted cup to reveal the program switch opening. Insert a small object (screwdriver, pencil, etc) into the opening and slide the switch to the 12 minute setting.

The factory preset position is the 8 minute setting.
