FAQ: Do I need a Watch Winder?

Do I really need a watch winder? We get this question a lot. Watch winders are for watches that are automatic or self winding watches. These are watches that are not automatically wound, or perpetual movement watches. What does this mean? Well, back in the day, watches were wound up and recharged by hand. This means they had to be wound to keep time properly. Many modern are self-winding, which means that no winding is necessary, which also means you don't need a winder. But if you own automatic watches and older watches, Watch Winders are necessary for keeping your watches running on time, even if you aren't wearing them. This will keep them ready to go! Watch Winders have different settings that will rotate the watch a certain number of times per day. Some winders have settings that you can customize to your liking.
