Is it worth buying a watch winder?
While some are willing to pay for the convenience, the idea of a watch winder as an essential tool of watch ownership is largely unfounded. Welcome to Counterpoint, a series in which we challenge commonly held ideas about well-known products.
Do watch winders wear out watches?
The answer is, generally, no. So long as the winder only turns a set number of times each day, known as the TPD (turns per day), then your watch is at little risk of being damaged.
Can you Overwind a watch in a watch winder?
Can a winder overwind a watch? A watch winder should not be able to overwind a watch, per se. Just as you should not be able to overwind your watch by winding it manually. Watches have a slip-clutch in place which ensures the main spring does not get overwound.
How many turns per day does a Rolex need?
A Rolex watch typically needs around 650 TPD (turns per day) in order to remain 100% wound for the day. A standard setting for a watch winder is considered to be around 750 TPD as this is generally what most modern watches require.
Should I wind my automatic watch daily?

How long should a watch be on a Winder?
In general, most winders will turn for anywhere from 30 seconds to a minute and then stop. Exactly how long the winder rests is determined by the TPD setting. For example, your watch might need to wind 10 times in 30 seconds.
Is it possible to Overwind a Rolex?
You cannot overwind a modern Rolex watch when manually winding it. Today, Rolex designs its watches so that you cannot overwind them no matter how much you wind. The winder simply disengages once it reaches max wind. However, have in mind that it has not always been like that.
Should you wear your Rolex everyday?
One of the best things about owning a Rolex watch is wearing it and enjoying it every day. This daily, constant wear is one of the best ways you can care for your watch. While Rolex watches are famous for their durability and robustness, your Rolex will inevitably gain scratches and dings while you wear them.
