Another question . . .
I have the 'patient' in the Orbita WW, set for CCW motion as instructed on the Orbita web-site. Will that be OK? I certainly don't want to cause any damage . . . .

Totally agree with your opinion about Watchwinders, Art
Nothing can beat the wrist! Best, Nicolas
Yet another winder problem..........
I'm suprised nobody has mentioned the simply phycical damage that can be caused by a watch winder. Many winders are set at a 90 degrees and therefore each time the watch winder starts turning, there is a substantial chance that there will be some slight m...
