I have unplugged my winder
Good Morning Gents,
After some amount of research and hearing from a few here I have asked I have decided to unplug my Heiden winder and try not using it. As I said I have done some research and it seems winders get mixed reviews on there use but from what I can gather for guys like me that don’t have any time pieces that have a complicated date calendar day function it’s best that I let mine run down and just set it when it’s selected for rotation. I currently have my DJII and it does have the date but is very easy to set then I have my Tudor BB that has no date so that’s even easier and lastly I have a Citizens Eco Drive that requires nothing so it was pointed out thru the searching I’ve done why cause unnecessary wear in these running when I won’t be wearing one for maybe two weeks at a time as my current plan is to switch every Sunday. I will keep them in my winder for storage but will leave unplugged just in case but I’m thinking part of the mystique and lure to these mechanical pieces should include winding and setting as I can still remember my dad winding and setting his watch many, many years ago. I on the other hand am very late coming into the automatic game as I am a pretty load guy but that’s ok as I’m going to enjoy the time I have with them https://photos.app.goo.gl/9kZdeHK8aQZPXCw58
