I got home last night from work and went to put my SA back in the winder and I thought uh oh, my Seiko has stopped! Then I noticed my Navitimer World, Cosmonaute and Seawolf were all out of sync and running slow! Then I realised numpty here had forgotten to switch the winders back on the day before!!

But it's OK, they are all back in sync now and winding...............................

Until my new winder arrives, I sit down and wind them all in the morning and just before bed.
I'd hate to reset dates and start again.

If you keep buying watches the way you do, you're going to need to hire someone to maintain them for you :P

Ah yes,that IS the correct lingo :oops:

Sorry, living in San Diego, there is a LOT of that going on. I have a good friend in the border patrol and they estimated 300-400 or so coming over every day :shock: Some secure border we have eh!

I have all mine sitting in display cases on top of a chest of drawers.

Any idea on prices Alex?

Also, do you know if you can program each head separately on the multi head units?
