This ensures that the mainspring stays wound. The time it takes for that to happen is known as its power reserve, and it varies across different models and brands, with some (such as the latest from the Panerai Luminor range) taking up to eight days to completely wind down.Ī watch winder is simply a device, either plug-in or battery-powered, that keeps a timepiece moving to replicate the effect of it being worn. If the piece is left stationary for an extended period of time, the watch will eventually use up all the tension in the mainspring and the watch will stop. That motion is transferred to a small weight in the internal movement that oscillates back and forth and puts tension on the mainspring. With such fine heritage, your Rolex watch deserves a beautiful watch winder.During normal wear and use, automatic mechanical watches are kept wound and running via the movement of the wearer’s arm.

Rolex is a brand that is instantly recognisable due to the high-profile sponsorship they have been involved with over the years. Rolex have produced some of the worlds most well known and loved models including the Daytona, Air-King, GMT Master, Submariner, Sea-Dweller and Explorer to name but a few. Rolex were the first watchmakers to earn the chronometer certification for a wristwatch in 1910 and the first to release a watch waterproof to 100m in 1953, the Rolex Oyster Perpetual Submariner. The company was moved to Geneva after World War 1 and Montres Rolex SA was registered in 1920 which became Rolex SA as we know it today. The company registered the name Rolex as the brand of its watches in 1908 but it was in 1915 that the company became Rolex Watch Co. Rolex was originally founded as Wilsdorf and Davies (by Hans Wildorf and Alfred Davis) in 1905 in London, England. Rolex SA, based in Geneva, Switzerland are the largest manufacturer of Swiss made certified chronometers and probably the most well know of all the luxury watch brands.
