Recently, the missus treated me to a watchwinder. Not a particularly expensive one - a four watch Rothenschild unit with an additional compartment for a further 6 watches. Now, I know that certain types of movements are not very compatible with watchwinders (kinetic movements, for instance) but, one of the watches that has spent a fair amount of time on the winder over the last few weeks (a Panerai PAM 86) appears to work for perhaps five or six days and then stops. I've tried switching to other winding programs but, to no avail. Has anyone else had any such experience? All other watches that have been on there have been fine.

That's fantastic! Thank you, Ian!Originally Posted by ian964
Well I'm sure that you know that Panerai OP III calibre is an uni-directional winding calibre, so that's how you'll have set the winder. I once had a similar experience and the expensive solution was to buy an Orbita, at the advice of the watchmaker. That worked.
That makes a lot of sense - thank you :)
