trailboss99 994 Posted May 14, 2010 Oh yes there is! Right here: http://www.replica-watches-guide.com/forum...?showtopic=5375 Top quality winder sold by R2D4 who I would trust with my life, buy with total confidence. Col. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KBH 7 Posted May 14, 2010 Interesting find. Perfect if you're looking for a winder for one watch. Get's rather expensive when you put 4 of them together though. I'll stick to my 4 watch Acetimer which also has display slots for 5 more watches. I bought one of the cheapies that D4m did a write up on a few months ago and wasn't impressed with it at all. Gave it to my Bro-in-law and don't know if it still works or not. It ran on a little motor and a big o-ring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trailboss99 994 Posted May 14, 2010 Thing is with Ace they won't wind a 7750, these will. No comparison in build quality, these are a tank. The price is actualy very very good compared to every other top notch winder on the market. Col. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Acetimer's rotate in both directions so at the highest number of 1000 turns a day, it only rotates the 7750 500 times in the right direction. It's just a little less than what's necessary to keep them wound. For 4 or 5 days it'll work fine. After about a week they will lose charge. Generally it takes at least 650 turns per day minimum to wind a watch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Actually, I have only 5-6 watches with A7750, so, I don't think it's the problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was thinking it might be possible also to double up the low setting of 650 tpd, which would make 1300 tpd, or 650 in the right direction for the 7750s. You'd have to know some electronics though.

Luthier 1 Posted May 15, 2010 I do know "some" electronic, spent all my childhood and youth with soldering iron, making my own short waves transmitters/recievers and amplifiers. Ofcourse, nowadays everything is different, but I have plenty of friends, who are on the top of electronic industry. Worth to try. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
