Winding an automatic Audemars Piguet Watch
Audemars Piguet automatic watches utilize wrist movement for power. However, if you don’t wear it for extended periods, you might have to wind it manually, so it functions again. Here’s how:
- Unscrew the crown and turn it clockwise for at least 30 full rotations.
- Secure the crown back in place.
For optimal performance, wear the watch for at least 8 hours daily to sustain its power reserve.
Using a watch winder for your Audemars Piguet
If you own multiple watches or don’t wear your Audemars Piguet daily, a watch winder is a great solution. Most models require 600-800 turns per day (TPD) in both clockwise and counterclockwise directions. Check your specific model’s requirements before setting up the winder.
Caring for your Audemars Piguet watch
- Avoid exposure to strong magnetic fields.
- Ensure a proper wrist fit to maintain the winding system.
- Clean regularly with a soft cloth.
- Schedule an annual service check at an authorized Audemars Piguet boutique.
By following these steps, you can keep your Audemars Piguet watch in excellent condition for years to come.
