The TANKER automatic watch winder combines fine lacquered wood and high-clarity acrylic glass to provide automatic watches with an active case where each piece remains ready to wear. Powered by a Mabuchi motor renowned for its horological reliability, this watch winder operates at less than 10 decibels—a discreet threshold that allows for its presence in a bedroom or dressing room. Its bidirectional cycle (alternating clockwise and counter-clockwise rotations with rest periods) covers all automatic calibres on the market. Compact size 13 × 13 × 15 cm, capacity for 1 watch, dual USB or AA battery power supply to adapt to all configurations. Mabuchi Motor < 10 dB

Advantages
Why a watch winder for automatic watches?
An automatic watch draws its kinetic energy from the natural movements of the wrist: the rotation of an internal rotor (oscillating weight) automatically winds the mainspring, powering the movement without batteries or manual intervention. When the watch is not worn for several days, the spring unwinds, the watch stops, and it must then be wound via the crown and the time, date, and all complications (day, moon phases, GMT, perpetual calendar) reset.
A watch winder like the TANKER continuously simulates wrist movements via calibrated rotation cycles, which keeps the mainspring wound and the calibre active. Concrete benefits: no need to reset the time even after several days without wearing it, uniform distribution of internal lubricants which preserves the longevity of the calibre in the long term, and the aesthetic pleasure of seeing your watch always active through the acrylic porthole, ready to be worn when leaving the dressing room.
How to use the TANKER in 4 steps
For what use should you choose the TANKER?
| Criterion | The TANKER is ideal if... |
|---|---|
| Number of watches | You own 1 automatic watch to maintain |
| Environment | Office, dressing room, bedroom — anywhere thanks to < 10 dB |
| Budget | You are looking for a reliable and affordable winder, without ostentatious extra costs |
| Footprint | Compact size 13 × 13 × 15 cm, does not take up much space |
| Style | You prefer sobriety — no LEDs, no flashy design |
| Usage | You wear your watch alternately and want it to always be active |
USB or AA batteries — never both together. The TANKER accepts either the USB cable (supplied) for mains connection, or 2 AA batteries (not supplied) for portable use. USB is recommended for continuous fixed use in an office or dressing room. AA batteries are useful for placement without power outlet constraints (library shelf, bedside table).
💡 Expert watchmaker tip. The TANKER's bidirectional cycle (2 min rotation + 6 min pause, alternating clockwise and counter-clockwise) is deliberately universal. It suits the vast majority of modern automatic watches: Rolex (calibres 3135, 3235, 3285), Omega (8500, 8800, 8900), TAG Heuer (Calibre 5, Calibre 7), Breitling, IWC, Cartier, Tudor. For very sensitive complications (perpetual calendar, tourbillon, minute repeater), always consult the manufacturer's documentation — some watchmakers recommend removing the winder during critical date changes (between 9 p.m. and 3 a.m.).
⚠️ Reserved for automatic watches. The TANKER is exclusively designed for automatic calibres with a rotor. It is not suitable for quartz watches (battery-powered), solar watches, manual-winding watches (which are wound only by the crown), or smartwatches. Placing these types of watches in a winder is unnecessary and can, in some cases, damage the movement.

Complete your watch universe
The perfect gift for a watch enthusiast
The TANKER is the perfect gift for anyone who owns (or has just acquired) a fine automatic watch. Where multi-slot watch winders impress with their size, the TANKER appeals with its functional precision: it does exactly what is asked of it, with a renowned motor and a design that defers to the watch on display. Ideal occasions: Father's Day, a loved one's birthday who recently got an automatic watch, a Christmas gift, accompanying a promotion gift or a retirement gift (often associated with the purchase of a commemorative watch), or a corporate gift for a client/partner who is a watch enthusiast. The Mahogany wood finish is the most visually striking when opening the package; the Glossy Black finish is the most understated and versatile.
