RGM watch winder direction and settings
RGM Watch is a luxury watch brand that has been making waves in the industry since its inception. The company was founded by Roland G. Murphy, who has over 25 years of experience in the watchmaking industry. His passion for horology and his dedication to perfection are reflected in every watch that bears the RGM logo.
One of the things that sets RGM apart from other luxury watch brands is their commitment to keeping the art of watchmaking alive. While many other companies have moved towards automation and mass production, RGM still creates every watch by hand. RGM produces their own movements in-house, which is a rarity in the watchmaking world. Their movements are designed to be both accurate and reliable, ensuring that each watch keeps perfect time for years to come. This attention to detail and craftsmanship means that each watch is truly unique and of the highest quality.
RGM offers a range of watches, from dress watches to sports watches to limited edition pieces. One of their most iconic designs is the Pennsylvania Series, which features a beautifully engraved dial inspired by the clock towers found on buildings throughout Pennsylvania.
For those who appreciate the artistry and precision of traditional watchmaking, an RGM watch is truly a work of art that can be enjoyed for generations.

Usually RGM’s self-winding movements need to rotate 650 - 800 revolutions per day, and most of them can be wound clockwise. So please take some time and like to choose a cute clockwork that suits you and your watch.

If you could not find your watch model (or caliber) in this table, you may determine your RGM. 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 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.
