Do you have an Omega Speedmaster or Seamaster watch? Or perhaps another Omega watch with an automatic movement? Then you have probably thought of buying a watch winder. Simply because you don't want to let your automatic watch come to a standstill. Standing still is not good for an automatic watch, and you especially want to maintain a beautiful Omega watch as well as possible.
A watch winder mimics wearing a watch by turning the watch around. As a result, the rotor of the timepiece continues to rotate slowly and the automatic timepiece obtains energy. This energy is converted into the running of the watch. A relatively old but highly valued technique among watch enthusiasts. After all, an automatic watch is often preferable to a quartz or mechanical timepiece.
If you are looking for a watch winder for an Omega watch, what should you pay attention to? Our advice is not to save on a good watch winder, because you want your Omega watch to be wound safely and professionally. Choose quality so that you can enjoy your purchase and your Omega watch for longer.
A good watch winder for Omega watches has strong motors of Japanese, German or Swiss origin. These motors are proven to be reliable, solid and durable. Because Omega watches are often slightly heavier in weight, a good motor is of great importance. A lesser quality motor will soon fail or make more sound when winding automatic watches. This is annoying, mainly because disturbing sounds are not pleasant. Especially not when the watch winder is in your bedroom or office.
We also advise you to choose a watch winder from a well-known brand. Brands such as Benson, Swiss Kubik, Bernard Favre and Orbita have proven themselves for years as a safe and good watch accessory. These brands invest in their technology, design, functionality and innovations. As a result, their products are continuously improved and you can also contact them in case something goes wrong. After sales are just as important as the purchase itself.
If you are going to buy a watch winder for an Omega watch, determine for yourself what capacity you need. In other words, do you want to wind one, two, three or more automatic watches. A capacity that is too large is unnecessary, but a capacity that is too small is not useful at all because then automatic watches will still stop. View your watch collection and count how many automatic watches you have. Also consider whether you will be buying or selling watches in the near future. Based on this, you can determine the desired capacity and buy the right model for your watch collection.
There is a huge choice in design and color. These aspects are important but not decisive for winding an Omega watch. If you like modern design, you can go to brands such as Benson, Swiss Kubik and Bernard Favre. If you like a more classic design, brands such as Orbita, Heisse & Söhne and Scatola del Tempo are interesting. You can take your interior into account. Choose a watch winder that suits your interior, it looks much better.
The purchase of a watch winder is not difficult if you include the above elements in your decision. We recommend that you buy from an official dealer who understands these watch accessories. With an official dealer you know that you are buying an original product and that you are supported by warranty and after sales. In addition, official dealers often have the latest collections of watch winders in stock with the latest technology and software. Do you notice at a jeweler that they have little understanding of this watch accessory? Then visit a jeweler who knows about it or search online for a good official dealer.
