oscarmadfish Posted October 9, 2008 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 best setting ? 650-850-1000 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg_r Posted October 9, 2008 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 Nice looking winder. Might be a good idea if you took the foam packaging out of the top of the winder before you switched it on, however - likely to work better that way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trailboss Posted October 9, 2008 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 Nice Oscar. The slowest seting that keeps your watches wound. It will vary from MVT to MVT. Native 21Js and ETAs should be happy on 650, watches with complications like GMT hands or moon phase take a little more and may need 850 while the 1000 is for those who sunscribe to the therey that chronos should be left to run.

alphakazi Posted October 9, 2008 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 very nice Oscar - I'm jealous - I'll be getting the exact one - are you fully happy with it? I just need to stop staying up all night, sleep all day and do some work or I won't be buying anything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mb1 Posted October 9, 2008 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 very nice Oscar - I'm jealous - I'll be getting the exact one - are you fully happy with it? I just need to stop staying up all night, sleep all day and do some work or I won't be buying anything Great winder, I have the same one. For watches with the 7750 I have it set for 1000, I believve the 7750 requires something like 900 turns per day. Eta 2824/2336 and asian 21J should be fine at 650. Enjoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oscarmadfish Posted October 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 yeah alpha very happy in fact i have just sat and watched it go through its cycle and now have to wait 3300secs for the next one mb1 i cant remeber whats in my watches so i will stick on 650 and see how it goes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Col. Yep - I'd agree with that - a couple of my 21Js seem to need 850 too, but as you say, they have complications (Tag GC RS8 GMT particularly). Surprisingly, the VC is happy at 650. Go figure. I wish I'd bought the 8 capacity winder to start off with, though - my single winder is almost useless. I'll drop a watch on it intending to wear it the following morning - come the morning I've changed my mind about the watch I want to wear, so the wrong one is in the winder..

Nope, it's a 21J - just seems to be a good one, that's all. greg= cheapskate You mean you've only just worked that one out....? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oscarmadfish Posted October 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 just bumped the skyland up to 850 as the fooker had stopped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg_r Posted October 9, 2008 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 just bumped the skyland up to 850 as the fooker had stopped You might have to set that for 1000 - 7750's seem to need it, apparently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oscarmadfish Posted October 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 still going now greg but will bump to 1000 if it stops thanx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg_r Posted October 9, 2008 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 still going now greg but will bump to 1000 if it stops thanx I imagine it's going to depend on your particular sample - like my VC, if it's well-lubed hopefully it'll just need the lower rate.
