Purchased a wolf 4.0 winder. Wondering how many turns a day it should be set at for a 09 SA and which spin direction. Oh and has anyone heard any good or bad on this winder? I hope it fits the watch! Thanks Always Cory |

Orbita have a database of watches, the direction and turns per day needed - here's the page that includes Breitling - http://www.orbita.net/pages/17102B.htm, and here's the hompage to navigate to other brands - http://www.orbita.net/pages/17100.htm |

Holy old threads! The ETA 7754 base which Breitling uses for the calibre 24 needs 800 clockwise. |

Well, good on him for searching and tacking on to an old thread, instead of making a new duplicate!!! |

I have a Heiden winder. Their website says all breitlings should be set at 988 TPD clockwise. I did that but all my breitlings would stop on the third day or so. So I went ahead and put the settings on the highest which is 1460 TPD clockwise. Will that be ok? Is there such a thing as over winding them? Don't mean to hijack the tread but after reading this... I started to think about it. |

Different calibers/movements have their own requirements in terms of direction and TPD. Have you checked the links in Roff's reply (post #3?) |

Heiden website is about as unreliable as their winders. Your watches should not be stopping after 3 days at nearly 1000 TPD unless some or all are CCW only or the winder is not coming close the TPD it is set to. Having had a Heiden winder before my first focus would be the winder, either the settings on the back or the winder not turning as much as it is supposed to. For simplicity, I keep all my winder settings at 850 TPD and have never had a watch, Breitling or otherwise, stop. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
