Power Reserves - willy - 23-10-2014
Just like to get a few opinions on the efficiency of your automatic watches . I know automatics are dependent of the amount of time you wear them , if you want them to keep ticking without having to hand wind them . Most of the ones i have owned have needed hand winding now and again to keep them going . I only wear my watches for about 8-9 hours a day . The problem is that most have screw crowns , and it is not healthy to use crowns in the long run . It causes unnecessary wear on the crown thread when you have to screw them out and in all the time .
Most hand wound watches have a pull out winding crown . The fact is that screw down crowns are not designed or meant to be used often . This means that if you buy a automatic watch with a screw crown , you should wear the watch for X amount of hours to avoid having to wind it . Or you have to stand there like a idiot with the watch in your hand and make a movement not unlike masturbation , to wind the bloody thing . And there is a risk that while shaking the watch it flys out of your hands and lands on the floor .
Is there a way around this problem for unfortunate people like me who do not wear their automatics for ca. 16 hours a day ? Well i may have solved the problem for myself with the latest watch i bought . My Chopard LUC has got a double barrel winding system with a very respectable 65 hour power reserve . And Chopard with a stroke of genius decided to equip this 4.96 caliber with a Tungsten winding rotor to improve the winding preformance of what is meant to be a dive watch . It is still a coffee bar diver in my opinion , but my hat goes off for Chopard . They did something other so called dive brands should think about . I never have to wind this watch even though i only wear it for about 8 hours a day . I will admit that i shake the watch a little bit now and again , so that i can hear the little beast of a rotor spinning around . It is a noisy little thing , but it works .
Anyone else got problems with their automatics ?

Har heller ingen problemer med min 72 timers
Re: Power Reserves - Stenstrup - 23-10-2014
Bare køb en watchwinder og problemet er løst
Desuden burde hignendmærker lave med mindst 72 timer gangreserve. Tissot har ure fra ca. 4.000 kr med 80 timers gangreserve.

Nemlig - Tissot Powermatic 80 har ingen problemer med kun at blive brugt få timer per dag. I øvrigt et pænt ur og ganske præcist.

Hats off for Tissot .

Hvad med et Marina Militare med 12 dages power reserve <!-- s:lol: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing" /><!-- s:lol: --> <!-- s:lol: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing" /><!-- s:lol: --> <!-- s:lol: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing" /><!-- s:lol: --> <!-- s:lol: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing" /><!-- s:lol: -->

Der er vel to parametre med hensyn til gangreserve, det er bevægelse og bevægelse. Hvis man sidder på sin flade de fleste timer af dagen, hvad skal man så bruge en gangreserve på 72 timer til, uret bliver jo aldrig fuldt optrukket, nej hatten af for et minimum af motion
Re: Power Reserves - Stensbjerg - 24-10-2014
Så er det jo rart at der er power reserve på skiven,
Så kan jeg altid se hvor meget der er tilbage af de 72 timer
Har jeg fået fortalt at jeg er ekstrem glad for uret. <!-- s:lol: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing" /><!-- s:lol: -->
