we make your watches move

Watchmakers and watch manufactur-ers all over the world have been us-ing the Elma watch winders for more than 50 years. The machines are used for developing watch works, for the final inspection after manufacturing and for the inspection of the winding mechanism for servicing purposes.

The professional watch winders move the winding rotors of automatic watches, imitating the natural move-ment of the wrist that carries a watch.

If the watches pass the test and they have a sufficient power reserve after winding, the watch work is classified as stable-running and cleared for sale.

From the professional unit to the specialized watch winder for collectors and lovers of precious watches

The professional Elma units pro-vided the technical foundation for the elmamotion which was one of the units designed for use in private households. Automatic watches were constantly kept running to pre-vent the gumming of the oils inside the watchworks, to keep the watches ready for wearing at any time and to make readjustment of complicated watches unnecessary, e.g. of watches with eternal calendar.

The modern puristic design marks the Elmamotion style series

The composition of precious wood and fine leather brings out the natu-ral character of the materials.One of the finest features of the El-mamotion style models is the presen-tation of the watches under a large slanted window. The swing-top cover can be opened wide and allows the watches to be put in and taken out very easily. The interior is lined with high-quality velour. The core of the unit is the functional drive and con-trol technology of leading Elma qual-ity.

Expectations of what a watch winder should do and what it should look like have changed largely.

The watch winder needs to suit the valuable pieces in every way and to present or discreetly store them in a style that corresponds with the personal attitude of their owners.No matter which design is preferred, one thing must be guaranteed: the watches need to be wound in a non-wearing way which takes care of the individual technical specifications of the watch works! With decades of experience and know how Elma is the professional expert in this field so that with Elma watch winders, valuable watches are in safe hands.

Mechanic watches should not only be “fully wound up”, but be operated using the full power of their main springs

• sleeping phase: several hours (start can be programmed individually) of idle time per day allow the main spring to unbend, prevent unnecessary strain on the winding mechanism and so serve to keep the accuracy of the watch

Depending on the watchwork, a mechanical watch has a special winding spring and therefore needs to be wound at an individual winding speed.

• adjustable number of revolutions: 650-1800 revolutions per day guarantee the optimum winding rhythm and prevent overwinding and malfunctions

The direction of winding is preset by the manufacturer

• individually adjustable winding directions: left-hand winding, right-hand winding, left-hand and right-hand winding alternatingly. All three winding modes prevent unnecessary idle phases and prolong the service life of the battery

Speed winding of a stopped watch

• speed winding: ensures that a sufficient power reserve will be built up in a short period of time

Battery indication for safe operation of the elmamotion watch winder

• low battery indicator warns if remaining energy will hold for only 3– 4 more days; guarantees change of battery in time to prevent the troublesome resetting, particularly on watches with additional complications;

battery running time at least 1 year
