Setup Instructions

  1. Unpack the Watch Winder: Carefully remove the watch winder from its packaging. Inspect for any signs of damage.
  2. Prepare Your Watch: Open the watch winder's lid. Remove the adjustable watch cushion from the winder. Secure your automatic watch onto the cushion. Ensure the watch is snugly fitted but not overly tight to avoid strain on the watch band.
  3. Place the Watch: Insert the cushion with your watch back into the winder's slot. Ensure it is seated correctly.
  4. Power Connection:
    • AC Adapter: Connect the provided AC adapter to the power input port on the back or bottom of the watch winder, then plug the adapter into a standard electrical outlet.
    • Batteries (Optional): If using batteries, open the battery compartment (usually on the bottom), insert the required batteries (e.g., AA or D, refer to the compartment label) with correct polarity, and close the compartment. Batteries are not included.
  5. Close the Lid: Gently close the acrylic glass lid to protect your watch from dust and ensure quiet operation.

Operating Instructions

The Olvy Automatic Watch Winder is designed for simple operation.

  1. Power On: Once connected to a power source (AC adapter or batteries), the watch winder will typically begin its winding cycle automatically. Some models may have a power switch; if so, turn it to the 'ON' position.
  2. Winding Cycle: The winder will rotate your watch for a period, then pause, and repeat the cycle. This intermittent rotation mimics natural wrist movement to keep the watch wound without overwinding. The specific rotation pattern (e.g., clockwise, counter-clockwise, or bi-directional) and intervals are pre-programmed to suit most automatic watches.
  3. Silent Operation: The advanced motor ensures that the winding process is extremely quiet, allowing for placement in any room without causing disturbance.
  4. Power Off: To stop the winder, disconnect the AC adapter or remove the batteries. If a power switch is present, switch it to the 'OFF' position.

Maintenance

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and appearance of your Olvy Watch Winder.

  • Cleaning the Exterior: Use a soft, dry, lint-free cloth to gently wipe the synthetic leather exterior. For stubborn marks, slightly dampen the cloth with water and mild soap, then wipe dry immediately. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  • Cleaning the Acrylic Window: Use a soft, clean microfiber cloth to wipe the acrylic glass window. For fingerprints or smudges, use a specialized acrylic cleaner or a very mild glass cleaner applied to the cloth, not directly to the window.
  • Interior Care: The soft interior lining can be gently dusted with a soft brush or a lint roller.
  • Avoid Direct Sunlight and Humidity: Place the watch winder in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and high humidity to prevent material degradation.
  • Battery Replacement: If using batteries, replace them promptly when the winder's performance diminishes to prevent leakage and damage to the unit.
