Operating the Tourbillon Watch Winder

Before you mount your watch, plug the supplied AC/DC adapter into any convenient wall outlet. Then, plug the cord end into any input jack “C” at the rear of the winder. The left display “G” will then read “t 1 O” and the right display “K” will read “7”. After a 5 second delay, the left display will shut off and the right display will begin flashing. Now you can set the time using buttons “H” and “J”. Be sure to set the clock for either AM or PM (for 24 hour time, see “Optional Settings”). Repeat the procedure for multiple units.

Optional Settings

You can easily program your winder to suit your preferences. To do so, remove the power plug from the jack and then reinsert it. Immediately depress button “A” and hold it down until the left display “G” show “LL 1” and the right display “K” shows “12H”. Then release button “A”. Now you can change the following default settings.

Optional Settings

LED Lighting – The 4 blue LED lights on your winder provide an attractive visual effect. However, they can be turned off if desired or the flash rate can be changed. Flash rate is viewed on the left display. To change the setting, depress button “H” repeatedly. “O” is off, “I” is the fastest flash rate and “2” to “7” are increasingly slower flash rates.
Time Mode – The right display will normally show 12 hour time mode (AM/PM) which is the factory default. If you wish to use 24 hour time mode, depress button “J” one time to toggle the setting (12H to 24H). When optional programming is complete, simply press the “A” button once to save the changes. Now you can set the time using the “J” or “H” button.

Programmed Operation

The winding program has been preset for you at the factory to provide 800 TPD and clockwise (CW) rotation. However, you can select other programs. Using switch “D”, you can choose the desired TPD for your specific watch. Using switch “F”, you can select watch rotation direction, clockwise (CW) or counterclockwise (CCW). Please note: The (REV) position is disabled and not to be used.

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.
