Orbita watchwinders for optimal winding of automatic watches
When it comes to watch winders, there is a wide range of options available. There are many possibilities regarding quality, price point, and aesthetics. For instance, there are watch winders designed primarily for functionality and reliability; while these models are highly effective and safe for your automatic watches, they feature a simple design. Watch winders in this category are often more competitively priced, allowing enthusiasts with a more modest budget or those less concerned with visual flair to purchase a suitable winder. However, there are also global brands offering ultra-luxurious watch winders crafted from the finest materials. These models fall into the higher price segment, offering not only a functional winding mechanism but also a sense of luxury and exceptional ease of use.
In this article, we focus on a US-based watch winder brand that carries both ultra-luxurious and more basic models in its collection: the exclusive and renowned brand Orbita. Orbita watch winders was founded by Chuck Agnoff in Wilmington, North Carolina, in 1996. The Orbita team possesses a wealth of knowledge and experience regarding automatic watches. When the company was launched, the team first learned everything there was to know about automatic watches in order to identify the gentlest and safest method for winding them.
From the very beginning, Orbita’s corporate philosophy has been "to create products of lasting value with exceptional attention to detail, products that people enjoy using." Innovation is also a top priority for Orbita. Orbita is a watch winder brand that is constantly evolving and holds several patents. For instance, the company developed the advanced ‘Rotorwind System.’ This system winds automatic watches by gently shaking them, introducing a completely new method for winding automatic timepieces, whereas previously, automatic watches relied solely on rotation to generate the necessary energy (the ‘Programmable System’). Today, Orbita’s collection includes watch winders featuring the ‘Rotorwind System’ as well as those equipped with the ‘Programmable System,’ allowing the brand to appeal to a wide audience.
Orbita’s collection caters to a range of budgets, from the modest to the substantial. The brand offers the Orbita Sparta series, designed to wind one or two automatic watches simultaneously; these compact, simply styled winders are made of synthetic material. Their solid foundation, high-end Swiss-made motors, ensures that any brand or type of automatic watch is powered efficiently and safely. Thanks to the choice of materials and the straightforward design, these high-quality winders are available at a competitive price. However, Orbita’s collection also includes ultra-luxurious models with every conceivable feature. The Orbita Avanti series, for example, offers watch winders housed in beautiful wooden cabinets, available with or without an elegant base. Crafted from the finest materials, these highly exclusive winders are also lockable, providing optimal protection for your automatic watches.
This series of watch winders also includes models designed for the serious collector, offering space for multiple automatic watches, with capacities ranging up to 36 timepieces. Additionally, models are available with extra storage space for other watches (quartz or mechanical) or for jewelry and cufflinks. Naturally, these Orbita models feature the brand's renowned Swiss-made motors, ensuring you never have to worry about your beloved automatic watches coming to a standstill. Orbita also utilizes premium watch cushions for securing the timepieces. Made from a specialized foam, these cushions allow you to safely store your automatic watches in the winder without fear of damage. While the cushions accommodate almost any size of automatic watch, smaller cushions are also available for particularly small timepieces.
All in all, Orbita is a brand that delivers quality for every automatic watch enthusiast, which is why it enjoys such global popularity. Choosing an Orbita watch winder means choosing the best for your automatic watch or watches. The advanced technology behind these winders ensures your timepieces are always ready to wear, while also providing them with optimal care; the winding motion ensures the watch's internal oils remain properly distributed.
