Question:Hi- I am looking for a single watch winder for an IWC (which according to the orbita site likes 800 TPD and bidirectional winding). Will
the eilux cylinders be able to wind this watch? My concern is that
the watch may be too heavy. It is an IWC Portugese and all the weight is in the face of the watch (the strap is alligator).
Thank you for your advice. Your website has been very helpful!

Answer: Thank you for your inquiry about a recommendation on the Single
Eilux winder for your IWC Portugese watch with an alligator strap.
Since this is a heavier watch an issue often comes up with winding heavy watches. They need a more severe angle of Rotation.
They need a heavy base to prevent the winder from tipping over.
The angle of the
winder head on the Box Buoy Eilux Single Winder: http://www.watchcases.com/eiluxwinders1.html
might be better for your heavy watch.
or the
Cherry Eilux Single Winder Box:www.watchcases.com/watch-winder-eilux-1c.html
would be better suited for a heavier faced watch than the other
Eilux single winders like the cylinder. The smaller less expensive Eilux Winder might work.
So you could try it, and email us the results positive or negative and we can share this with our customers. We rely on customer reports for most winder recommendations. It is not an exact science, every watch is a tad bit different, and heavier watches can be tricky.
Another winder you may want to consider, since your watch collection seems to include high end heavy and possibly large chronograph and diver's watches is the
Siena 1 Winder by Orbita:

User-programmable control allows head direction and turns per day (TPD)
to be optimized for the watch being wound. Plus the Winder Motor is hefty and substantial and can easily wind any watch on the market.
We look forward to receiving your on line order.
Sincerely,
Customer Service
