Why a winder for your automatic watches?

An automatic watch draws its kinetic energy from the natural movements of the wrist: the rotation of an internal rotor (oscillating weight) automatically winds the mainspring, powering the movement without a battery. When the watch is not worn for 24 to 48 hours, the spring unwinds, the watch stops, and it must then be wound via the crown, followed by re-setting the time, date, and all complications (day, moon phases, GMT, perpetual calendar).

A watch winder like the Big Woody's permanently simulates wrist movements via calibrated rotation cycles. For a collector with multiple watches, the stakes are multiplied: without a winder, each watch taken out of a drawer requires 2 to 3 minutes of adjustment. With the Big Woody's, your 4 watches are always ready to wear, perfectly on time, and the movement remains active — which preserves the longevity of the internal lubricants and therefore the caliber.

THE BIG WOODY'S SPIRIT: THE COLLECTOR'S CASE

The Big Woody's is inspired by the traditional watch displays found in Swiss workshops at the beginning of the 20th century: a noble wood casing, a glass door that reveals the timepieces, and an interior lined with fine material to showcase each watch. This lineage is not anecdotal — it anchors the Big Woody's in a tradition where the winder is not just a functional device, but a horological furnishing in its own right. The choice between a copper red interior (referencing traditional Swiss and English watch boxes) or matte black (contemporary, more graphic aesthetic) allows everyone to integrate it into their environment: executive office, cozy library, collector's dressing room, or personal showroom.

How to use the Big Woody's

1
Installation. Place the Big Woody's on a flat, stable surface. Plug in the provided power adapter. The 3.6 kg weight ensures perfect seating; no additional mounting is required.
2
Setting up watches. Open the glass door. Place each watch on its universal holder and adjust the strap length for a firm hold without putting stress on the case.
3
Selecting the mode. Choose the rotation mode suitable for each slot (see the mode table). Bidirectional Mode 4 is suitable for the majority of modern automatic watches.
4
Starting. Close the door. The winder automatically engages the programmed cycle. Operation is continuous 24/7 with built-in pauses to spare the mechanism.

The 5 rotation modes — which one to choose?

Mode Program Ideal for
Mode 1 Manual continuous rotation (ON/OFF) Occasional use, initial testing
Mode 2 Clockwise 2 min / pause 6 min, repeat Clockwise-winding calibers (certain Omegas)
Mode 3 Counter-clockwise 2 min / pause 6 min, repeat Counter-clockwise-winding calibers
Mode 4 ⭐ Clockwise 2 min / pause 6 min / counter-clockwise 2 min / pause 6 min Rolex, TAG Heuer, Breitling — universal choice
Mode 5 Cycles 5 min over 3h, then 9h pause Low TPD, delicate pieces, perpetual calendars

TPD (Turns Per Day) by brand: Rolex 650 TPD → Mode 4. Omega Seamaster 800 TPD → Mode 4. TAG Heuer 650 TPD → Mode 4. IWC 650 TPD → Mode 4. Breitling 800 TPD → Mode 4. Cartier 650 TPD → Mode 4. If you do not know your watch's exact TPD, Mode 4 (bidirectional) is the universal choice suitable for the vast majority of modern automatic watches. For sensitive complications (perpetual calendar, tourbillon, minute repeater), choose Mode 5, which puts less strain on the mechanism with its 9-hour long pause.

Optimal use: the Big Woody's can operate continuously 24/7 without risk to your watches — the programmed pause cycles prevent any overwinding. For mixed collections (4 watches of different brands), you can assign a specific mode to each slot according to the caliber. The glass door keeps your watches free from dust while leaving them visible at all times.

Reserved for automatic watches. The Big Woody's is exclusively designed for automatic rotor-driven calibers. It is not suitable for quartz (battery-operated) watches, solar watches, manual-winding watches (which are wound by the crown only), or smartwatches. Placing these types of watches in a winder is useless and can, in some cases, damage the movement.

The standout gift for a collector

The Big Woody's is the exceptional gift for an enthusiast or collector of automatic watches. Its 4-slot capacity and traditional watch box aesthetic make it an object meant to be displayed as much as used — a true piece of horological furniture that immediately enhances the recipient's collection. Ideal for major birthdays (40, 50, 60), Father's Day, Christmas, retirement gift (often associated with the purchase of a fine commemorative watch), professional promotion, or a high-end corporate gift. The Copper Red version is the most visually striking upon opening the package; the Matte Black version is more sober and versatile.

Frequently asked questions

Which rotation mode should I choose for a Rolex?
Mode 4 (bidirectional — clockwise then counter-clockwise) is recommended for Rolex. All modern Rolex calibers (3135, 3235, 3285) are bidirectional and perform optimally with alternating rotation. The recommended Rolex TPD is approximately 650 turns per day — the Big Woody's Mode 4 perfectly covers this requirement for Submariner, GMT-Master, Daytona, Datejust, Sea-Dweller.
Is the Big Woody's compatible with all automatic watches?
Yes — all automatic rotor-winding watches: Rolex, Omega, TAG Heuer, Breitling, IWC, Cartier, Longines, Tudor, Seiko, Tissot, and the vast majority of modern automatic mechanical calibers. The universal cushions adapt to all straps (leather, metal, rubber, NATO). Not compatible with quartz, solar, manual-winding, or smartwatches.
Is the Big Woody's really silent?
Yes — the motor is designed to operate discreetly, and the 3.6 kg solid wood construction naturally absorbs residual vibrations. The Big Woody's can be placed in a bedroom, office, or dressing room without noise disruption. The programmed pauses between each rotation cycle also reduce the motor's active operating time.
Can I leave my watches in the Big Woody's permanently?
Yes — that is the recommended use. The Big Woody's is designed to operate continuously 24/7. The modes incorporate programmed pause cycles (especially Mode 5 with its 9h pause) that preserve the mechanism and avoid any risk of overwinding. The glass door keeps watches safe from dust at all times.
Which atmosphere should I choose: Copper Red or Matte Black?
The choice depends on your interior and the desired effect. Copper Red: the most visually striking, warm presence in the style of a traditional Swiss watch box — ideal for a library, living room, or executive office, and particularly impressive as a gift. Matte Black: more sober and graphic, highlights each watch with maximum contrast — perfect for a contemporary dressing room or minimalist office.
Can I program a different mode for each slot?
Yes — each slot of the Big Woody's can be programmed independently with its own rotation mode. This is particularly useful for a mixed collection including different brands with varied calibers (for example: Rolex in Mode 4, Omega in Mode 4, IWC with complications in Mode 5). You can thus adapt the program to the TPD recommended by each manufacturer.
Is the Big Woody's a good gift for a collector?
It is an exceptional gift for a collector of automatic watches. Its 4-slot capacity and horological box aesthetic make it an object that immediately enhances the recipient's collection — useful in everyday life, beautiful to display. Ideal for major birthdays (40, 50, 60), Father's Day, Christmas, retirement (often associated with buying a fine watch), professional promotion, high-end business gift.
