Got myself a nice present

Recommended Posts

Didn't know what to ask for my birthday so i said to my family just bring some nice bottles of wine or some money to buy

me a watchwinder.

After surfing the web for several weeks i decided to pull the trigger on a flexible and modern looking solution.

It's the Beco Boxy Epoxy which can be upgraded to 12 winders.

IMO it looks great and it's real quiet.

And packed behind the window to store them dust free.

You can organize them any way you want ( contacts on the bottom and top )

My question to all the experts out here is

I can't recall the advised number of turns per day that the ETA 2836 movements needs .

Does anyone have a clue.

I can select 672 , 960 or 1248 per day and i have chosen to have the turn clockwise first and the counterclockwise

Thanks for looking

Thanks PeteM ( my birthday was in December but it took a long time to decide which one to buy :rolleyes: :rolleyes: )

I googled TPD for ETA movements and also saw some post on forums stating that 672 TPD should be enough.

That is excellent. Anyone know if there is a USA reseller of these?

Also, how are the pillows? I am quickly finding some of these put too much stress on the bracelet/clasp for 7" and smaller wrists. My wife can not use her AceTimer winder for this exact reason. A 6" bracelet is under too much tension on his pillows. Thoughts?

ETA movements should be set on the lowest setting. Here is Orbita's guide to TPD: http://www.orbita.net/NEW/Database-E.htm

@ Ronin

I have a normal size wrist and the pillows fit perfectly.

I'll shoot some pics tomorrow or this weekend how the pillow is mounted on the winder.

If the bracelet is small i don't think it will influance the fitting if the pillow.

@ Seafoam

it's on my wrist at the moment coming home from a excellent lume job done by Caruwe ( Finedd on RWI )

I will shoot some decent lume shot's this evening or this weekend and i'm sure Caruwe will be a busy guy from now onwards.
