Answer:
A watch winder is a mechanically designed box that helps keep automatic watches wound and energized when not being worn.

Most automatic watches gradually lose power after 24 to 72 hours of non-use, depending on the movement and brand. When the power reserve is depleted, the watch stops, requiring the user to reset the time, calendar, or moon phase every time before wearing it again. This process can be time-consuming and, more importantly, frequent pulling and adjusting of the crown may cause unnecessary wear or damage over time.

For individuals who wear their automatic watch daily, the natural motion of the wrist is usually enough to keep it wound. However, for those who own multiple timepieces or don’t wear a particular watch every day, a watch winder offers a convenient and reliable solution.

By mimicking the natural motion of the wrist, a watch winder ensures that the timepiece remains powered and ready to wear at any time—without needing to reset anything. Moreover, regular movement keeps the lubricants inside the movement evenly distributed, preventing them from drying out, which helps extend the longevity of the watch and reduces the need for servicing.

Many automatic watch owners are also collectors who invest in high-end luxury timepieces. For them, a high-quality watch winder not only keeps their watches in optimal condition but also serves as a secure, elegant way to store and display their valuable collection.

Answer:

BOXY watch winders are engineered to accommodate a wide range of automatic watches, including those with substantial weight:​

• Leather Strap Watches: Typically weigh between 100–120 grams.​

• Rubber Strap Watches: Generally range from 130–150 grams.​

• Metal Bracelet Watches: Often weigh between 160–180 grams.​

Based on the robust motors and precision-engineered gear systems utilized, BOXY watch winders can support watches weighing up to approximately 448–560 grams. 

This substantial capacity ensures that even the heaviest timepieces can be securely accommodated, maintaining optimal performance and care for your valuable watches.

Answer:

A single AC/DC adapter can power up to 12 BOXY BRICK watch winders simultaneously. This configuration is designed to balance efficiency and safety, ensuring optimal performance of each winder. 

The motor in each winder requires a maximum driving current of 40 milliamperes (mA). Given that the provided AC/DC adapter supplies up to 2 amperes (2000 mA), it could theoretically support up to 50 winders (2000 mA ÷ 40 mA = 50). However, to maintain structural integrity and ensure safety, it is recommended not to stack more than three winders vertically. 

Adhering to these guidelines helps prevent potential mechanical issues and ensures the longevity of your BOXY BRICK watch winders.

A:

No, it does not pose a danger.

One of the main reasons we use AC/DC converters is to step down high-voltage household alternating current (AC) into a relatively low-voltage direct current (DC), thereby reducing the risk of electric shock during operation. Low-voltage DC power (such as 5V or 12V) is generally considered safe for human contact.

The power adapters we provide have a maximum output current of 2A. According to Ohm’s Law (V = IR), the resistance of the human body under dry conditions can reach several thousand to tens of thousands of ohms. For example, if the output voltage is 5V and the body's resistance is 10,000Ω, the current passing through the body would be:

I=510,000=0.5 mA

This current is far below the threshold at which a person can feel an electric shock (typically 1–5 mA), and therefore it does not cause any harmful effects.

In contrast, if a person comes into contact with 100V or higher AC power, the risk increases significantly. Even if the current is still relatively low, the alternating nature of AC (with its rapid polarity reversal) can more easily disrupt nerves and muscles, and in extreme cases, may induce arrhythmia or convulsions.

Thus, converting AC to lower-voltage DC through a transformer is not only a matter of power supply requirements but also a critical safety design consideration.

A:

No, it will not pose any danger.

We have tested the setup ourselves — running 12 BRICK units using 3 power adapters — and everything functioned normally.

Each power adapter we provide has a maximum current output of 2 amps. However, each motor in the BRICK watch winder requires no more than 40 milliamps to operate. The motors only draw the amount of current they need, so using multiple adapters will not cause any risk or affect performance.

ABEST Products Resourcing Inc. was established in 2000 and successfully developed a new line of automatic watch winders in 2001, which were then introduced to the market.

The BOXY watch winder series holds multiple international invention patents and has been primarily exported overseas. For over a decade, BOXY products have been sold in countries around the world, earning a strong reputation for their high quality and reliable after-sales service.

In response to growing demand in the domestic market, we are now proudly introducing the BOXY watch winder series to local consumers in Taiwan, as a way of giving back to our home market.

A:

In Taiwan, it’s quite common for consumers to express concerns about whether a watch winder can cause a mechanical watch to become magnetized.

A well-designed watch winder — whether it uses a brushed or brushless motor — will not magnetize your mechanical watch. Here’s why:

A typical non-antimagnetic mechanical watch can resist magnetic fields up to 1,600 A/m, while international standard ISO 764 requires antimagnetic watches to withstand at least 4,800 A/m.

We live surrounded by various magnetic fields in everyday life — from the Earth’s magnetic field to devices like smartphones, laptops, TVs, and even electric shavers. For example:

• Earth’s magnetic field: ~0.3–0.5 Gauss

• Smartphone speaker: ~16,000 A/m

• Laptop speaker: ~8,000 A/m

• Electric shaver (at 3 cm): ~0.15–15 Gauss

• Vacuum cleaner (at 3 cm): ~8 Gauss

✅ How to convert A/m to Gauss?
1 A/m = 1.26 μT (microtesla)
1 μT = 10 mG (milligauss)
So, 1 A/m ≈ 0.0126 Gauss

Magnetic Field Resistance Breakdown:

• Non-antimagnetic watches can resist up to 20 Gauss

• Antimagnetic watches (ISO 764) can resist at least 60.5 Gauss

• Earth’s magnetic field: 0.5 Gauss

• Smartphone speaker: 201.6 Gauss

• Laptop speaker: 100.8 Gauss

• Electric shaver (3 cm): 0.15–15 Gauss

• Vacuum cleaner (3 cm): 8 Gauss

From this data, we can see that although devices like smartphones and laptops generate strong magnetic fields, the effect rapidly diminishes with distance. For instance, at 5 cm away, a smartphone speaker’s field drops to only 400 A/m, or 5 Gauss — well below harmful levels.

Watch winders, whether using brushless or brushed motors, do produce electromagnetic fields, but they are typically weaker than those of vacuum cleaners or shavers. Even if a motor emits up to 15 Gauss (at 3 cm), it’s still below the 20 Gauss tolerance of non-antimagnetic watches. Moreover, in our BOXY design, the watch sits at least 7 cm away from the motor, meaning any magnetic influence is negligible.

If a mechanical watch does become magnetized while using a watch winder, it is more likely due to a poorly designed product — for example, one that uses magnetic clasps on the cover or includes wireless induction charging circuits that may emit strong fields. To avoid this, it’s important to choose a reputable brand with proven safety and design standards.

Because watch winders are not yet widely used in Taiwan, we often hear consumers say that watch stores have told them using a winder could harm their watch.

We’d like to clarify that watch winders are a common and trusted accessory among mechanical watch collectors around the world. BOXY has been dedicated to the development of high-quality watch winders for nearly 20 years and holds a leading market share and strong brand recognition internationally.

A well-designed watch winder will not damage your watch. On the contrary, it helps care for and maintain your mechanical timepiece. BOXY watch winders are engineered to keep your watch’s movement running smoothly without placing unnecessary strain on it.

Using a winder helps reduce the need to manually wind your watch and reset the time and date every time you wear it — actions that can introduce dust, moisture, and mechanical stress into the movement over time. As a result, using a watch winder may help extend the service interval for cleaning and lubrication, protecting both your watch and your wallet.
