Abstract
A watch winder (1) comprises a fixed assembly having a central shaft 92), a rotatable assembly rotatably mounted to the central shaft and comprising a housing (3) having distal end configured to receive a watch, and a drive assembly mounted on the fixed assembly to and configured to rotate the rotatable assembly about the central shaft and comprising a motor (7), drive gear (8, 30, 32, 33), and a battery assembly (9, 10) operatively connected to the motor. The drive assembly is mounted to the fixed assembly within the housing (3) of the rotatable assembly, and the central shaft extends proximally of the housing (3). The housing is axially mounted on the central shaft (2) by means of a distal bearing plate (18) and a spaced apart proximal bearing plate (19), wherein the drive assembly is fixed to the central shaft between the two spaced apart bearings plates. The provision of two spaced-apart bearing plates reduces the forces exerted on the bearings, reducing the energy consumption of the device. One of the distal or proximal bearing plate, generally the distal bearing plate, comprises a gear operatively coupled to the drive gear of the fixed assembly.
