I just got a cheap watch winder (Belocia) and was wondering if I should set it to clockwise, counter-clockwise, or alternate?
There is also 4 settings:

a: 33 sec on, 12 min rest
b: 10 min on 90 min rest
c: 30 min on 3 hr rest
d: 1 hr on 3 hr rest

I have an SA, a Boschett Cavedweller (Japanese Movement), Seiko Orange Monster, and a Tag 200 meter

I really bought the winder for my wife because she wears the Tag now as it's too small for me, and I'm getting tired of setting it every time she decides to wear it. I got an extra one for my cave dweller and orange monster.

Thanks in advance! :strummin:

The SA only winds clockwise.

For the others, check the database at www.orbita.net and that will tell you the direction and number of turns per day needed for each watch.

Listed under Miyota - Counter Clockwise 650 - 950.

If you can't program different pillows separately then you will have problems as you now have watches that only winde clockwise and others that only wind counterclockwise.

Thanks again. Feel kinda dumb :?

As for the winders I bought 2, a single and a double. I should have no problem accommodating my watches.
