Compact Case, Textured Black Leather
Unlike other watchwinders which rotate a watch in order to wind it, the unique SPARTA 1 watchwinder gently swings the watch instead. Every 10 minutes (standard program) or every 15 minutes (extended program), the internal control micro-processor signals the drive motor to make a single turn, causing the watch to swing back and forth for several oscillations just as it would if it were being worn on the wrist.
The 15 minute program allows many watches that wind in both directions to remain fully wound while on the winder and at the same time provides increased battery life by as much as 35%.
The oscillating winding action of the SPARTA 1 watchwinder is totally self-regulating and there is absolutely no chance of damaging an expensive watch by over-winding. A semi-circular rotor, attached to the back of the mounting cup, is the "heart" of the patented ROTORWINDŽ system (click here for details). Made from a dense, non-magnetic iron material, it is supported by two free-turning precision ball bearings, thus enabling the heavy mass of the rotor to produce the "back and forth" motion when the cup is raised and then released from the 12 o'clock position.
