Premium 40, the disappearing watchwinder. Watch collectors now have a choice. They can keep as many as 40 automatic watches fully wound, either on display or completely hidden from view. The attractive, inlaid cabinet, Italian-made, houses a remote controlled motorized lift mechanism that raises or lowers the watchwinder module on command .
When in the lowered position, both the watches and the watchwinder mechanism are totally concealed and the casual observer only sees a beautifully detailed piece of furniture. Even when the front doors are opened, the storage area is exposed but there is no hint of the watches stored within, as they are concealed behind a false panel.
Two waist-level, ball-bearing mounted storage drawers are also provided. One drawer has more than adequate space for additional watches, for documents or for several of Orbita's Sempre winders for hand-wound watches. The second drawer slides out to reveal all electric controls as well as a digital Atomic clock which provides an extremely accurate time reference for watch resetting, if required.
The Italian-made cabinet is available in Madrona Burl or Mahogany veneers with decorative inlays of brass and pear wood. Access to all internal mechanisms is from the front of the cabinet. There are individual motorized winding mechanisms for each watch (40 in total). Each watch station has its own on/off switch and a two position slide-switch for controlling the number of winding cycles per day. Orbita's unique patented ROTORWIND® system "rocks" the watch in an oscillating motion every 10 or 15 minutes (according to switch position), providing a gentle, but reliable winding action.
Operation of the Premium 40 winder is smooth and quiet. Long, maintenance-free life is assured by the use of 160 precision ground ball bearings (4 at each station) and 40 Swiss-designed ironless core servomotors. The winding action continues automatically while watches are on display or concealed in the cabinet. Owners of fine automatic watches can be confident that their watches will remain fully wound and properly "exercised" without any concerns about overwinding.
