Question:I own a Rolex Daytona and was wondering if an Orbita Sparta Open 1 Watch Winder would be able to wind my watch?
Answer:Probably.
The
Orbita Sparta Open 1 Winder (http://www.watchcases.com/spsisiwibyor.html) is designed to meet the winding needs of most of the automatic watches. The Rolex Daytona is a powerful looking watch. The Orbita Sparta 1 Winder is built to take care of this dynamic watch.
This Orbita winder comes with an option to purchase an AC adapter. Even though there is a guarantee that the batteries will power your winder for about 2 years you may choose to purchase the adapter to use, instead of batteries, to ensure continuous power to the winder.
If you are looking for more style or a winder that would display your Rolex Daytona automatic watch, you may want to think about the
Single Watch Winder(http://www.watchcases.com/orsp1decama.html), or the
Siena 1 Watch Winder (http://www.watchcases.com/orbita-watch-winder-siena-1.html).
Orbita watch winders are well built, quiet, and dependable and are built to wind most luxury automatic watches.

Question: I see the
Eilux two watch winder on sales for $395...will this work with a Panerai Luminor 44mm? This appears to be a very good deal...maybe a better winder than the Orbita Sparta?
Answer: Tim,
Panerai makes a number of models which could fit your description.
(So why don't you donate it to me and I can learn about it? ;-)
Just playing...At the bottom is a partial list of Panerai Luminor models.
Please see if you can find your particular model listed, and also answer my other questions. I will need to do a little bit of research. But in general you are looking at 2 good winder choices.
Panerai historically are difficult to wind.
Does this watch have any type of protective devices covering the winding stems etc.? Panerai makes more mechanically wound watches than automatics but if your is automatic this might not be an issue.
Is this watch super heavy?
Is it extra large with protruding stems?
Or is it truly only 44mm from edge to edge at its broadest points?
You ask if the
Eilux 2 winder is better than the Sparta?
I would not say better, it might end up being a better choice for you, but it is hard to compare the watch winders so simply, Apples and Oranges issues, if you will.... however before I make any recommendation I will need to do a little bit of research. Both Watch Winders should work fine for this watch. Again, let me get back to you.
If you can not identify the winding needs for your watch, the Sparta Deluxe Watch Winder would be the easiest choice.
Why?
Well, the Panerai people like to make a mix of watches, most winding like a Rolex Bi-directionally and requiring at least 650 TPD, however about 40% or more of the Panerai Luminor series winds clock wise at 800 TPD, so the
Orbita Sparta with its unique patented winding system allows you to insert the watch into the winder and not fret about figuring out the winding setting since the Sparta takes care of that for you.

Most watch winders rotate a watch in a circular motion .
Orbita’s Sparta Automatic Watch Winder operates on a totally different
principle. The Sparta Winder swings the watch; pendulum like. The standard
program activates the internal microprocessor every 10 minutes.
The 15 minute program (extended program) - available on the battery
operated winders - allows many watches that wind in both directions
to remain fully wound while on the winder, providing increased
battery life by as much as 50%.
Once the swinging motion begins, gravity does the rest.
The heart
of the winder; the patented ROTORWIND™ system enables
the heavy mass of the Sparta rotor to produce a gentle and quiet
"back and forth" motion. Providing an excellent winding result
and saving battery power too! Orbita's manufacturer's warranty
is 2 years.
Since this Sparta Rotor Wind Winding motion is inconsistent and
moves in all directions, fast and then slow just like the human
wrist it is able to wind every watch. Now if you have a larger
heavier watch, you have to buy it in
the boxed version and not
the open model winder since the open winder can not wind a too
heavy watch.
