Bernard Favre is delighted to announce his new website and the Planet double-axis watch winder.
Mesmerizing Planet double-axis watch winder by Bernard Favre
Bernard Favre's double-axis Planet watch winders keep your automatic watches wound at an optimal level so that they are ready to wear at a moment’s notice, look fantastic and are mesmerizing to watch in operation. Unlike many watch winders on the market, the double-axis Bernard Farve Planet does not overwind watches thanks to the nine program options, ensuring an optimal winding setting for any timepiece. There is even an eye-catching "Exhibition" program if drawing attention to a featured watch is the aim. A concealed switch in base selects programs, while a slot for a USB key allows for loading custom winding programs. The Planet double-axis watch winder is made to the highest Swiss standards and features a black aluminium base with polished, black or gilded stainless steel rotation rings. The quiet, high-efficiency motor runs for 3 months on a single charge on the standard program and is ultra-silent thanks to acoustically-sealing O-rings in the base. The battery is quickly charged by a simple USB cable and can be left permanently connected. An elegant glass dome both protects the watch from dust and curious hands as well as adding to the mystery of the kinetic ballet within.
