Proper winding an auto
Re: Proper winding an auto
Thanks everyone for the advice, I'll be winding only when wearing from now on. I'm probably going to do a weekly rotation on my watches so might still get a winder to keep the one I'm wearing running throughout the week. I don't want to wear them for work for fear of damage so a winder would be useful to keep one going during the day so I can wear it the evening without have to wind and set.

Most new C60s will use the Sellita, no? Does the same caution apply?robinbarke wrote:Exercise some caution. The winding shafts on ETA automatic movements are not built to sustain regular and full (say 40 turns) winding. Good practice is to turn just sufficient to start the watch and then let the rotor take over.skykingcory wrote:Ok, thanks. I was hesitant and afraid of overwinding.
