Own a beautiful TISSOT automatic watch? You know the elegance and precision they represent. But like any automatic timepiece, it needs consistent movement to maintain accurate time. That's where a watch winder becomes indispensable.
Why Use a Watch Winder for Your TISSOT?
Preserve Accuracy: A watch winder simulates the natural motion of your wrist, ensuring your TISSOT's mainspring stays wound. This prevents the watch from stopping and requiring a reset, which can be time-consuming and potentially stress the delicate movement.
Extend Movement Lifespan: By keeping the lubricants within the movement flowing, a watch winder helps prolong the lifespan of your TISSOT's intricate mechanism.
Convenience: Simply place your watch on the winder and let it do the work. You'll always have a ready-to-wear, perfectly timed TISSOT.
Showcase Your Timepiece: Many watch winders feature elegant designs that allow you to display your TISSOT as a piece of art.
Choosing the Right Watch Winder for Your TISSOT Automatic
When selecting a watch winder, consider these factors:
Rotation Direction: TISSOT watches generally require bidirectional winding. Ensure the winder offers this capability.
Turns Per Day (TPD): TPD refers to the number of rotations the winder makes per day. Consult your TISSOT's specifications or a reputable watch winder guide to determine the optimal TPD. For example, many TISSOT automatic watches require around 650-800 TPD.
Winder Quality: Invest in a reliable winder from a reputable brand to avoid damaging your valuable TISSOT.
Size and Design: Choose a winder that accommodates your TISSOT's size and complements your personal style.
Specifically, for a TISSOT PRX Watch Winder:
The TISSOT PRX, with its sleek design and automatic movement, benefits greatly from a watch winder. You will want to verify the specific TPD that your PRX requires, but generally it falls within the previously stated range. When selecting a watch winder for your TISSOT PRX, ensure the winder's cushion or holder securely accommodates the watch's case and bracelet.
How to Use a Watch Winder for Your TISSOT:
Set the TPD and Rotation Direction: Adjust the winder's settings according to your TISSOT's specifications.
Place Your Watch: Securely place your TISSOT on the winder's cushion or holder.
Power On: Turn on the winder and let it run.
Regular Maintenance: Periodically check your watch and the winder's settings to ensure optimal performance.

If you could not find your watch model (or caliber) in this table, you may determine your TISSOT winding mode on a trial basis. You should select the combined winding mode (CW+CCW) and the minimal number of turns per day (TPD). Then place your watch into the watch winder box and check after a few days how accurate your watch shows the time. If it runs behind, it is necessary to increase the number of TPD by one step.
