    you may want to visit eilux and wolf design website to ask them who are the dealers in sg that carries their stock.

    to me, the internal working mechanism is more important. most eilux winders these days comes with min 900 TPD. which is close to 250 TPD more than recommended for rolex watches. i still have 1 eilux triple winder that works on 650 TPD. so far, the winder has served me well and my watches well.

    though some will be say even with higher TPD, it makes no difference because there is a slipping clutch mechanism in most if not all automatic watches which prevents the watches from over-wind.

    however to some, the question is why subject the watch to unnecessary due stress? yes, the slipping clutch is to prevent overwind, but if the slipping clutch is constant be subjected to usage, will the slipping clutch mechanism break down? one member has even gone to the extend that advice was sought from a well-known brand watch technician to say that additional TPD will not damage your watch.

    all moving parts within a watch is subjected to service once between 3-5 years depends on usage. if the slipping clutch is constantly being activated, will it not cause the part to 'break down' faster compared to normal usage? i leave it to you to decide.

    the winder is to simulate the hand movement to keep the power reserve up. however, the question now is for orbita, the recommended TPD is 650. for eilux is 900 TPD. this means an additional of 250TPD, why? i got no answer, but the speculative answer could be that the winder can accommodate any watch under 900 TPD.
