Time in Motion

The Rotalis 6 Woodwatch winder by Erwin Sattler is now available in a new, elegant design. Behind the glass door of the case featuring an open-pore wood texture and metal inlays, there is space for up to six automatic wristwatches.

For each watch, the optimal motion parameters are selected from an integrated database containing data on more than 12.000 wristwatches. Each individual winder is equipped with its own motor, which can be controlled via Wi-Fi, although this is not essential for the device’s operation. The Rotalis 6‹ simulates the daily routine of a watch wearer with a 16-hour active phase and an 8-hour rest phase, returning the watches to a 12-o’clock-up position at the end of the cycle.

The model is available in black and walnut finishes and impresses with both its functionality and its decorative appeal. Additional features include LED lighting, smoked glass, and various watch holder options to accommodate different strap lengths.

Manufactured from high-quality materials in Gräfelfing near Munich, this is a product for discerning watch enthusiasts who value precision — and who always keep things in motion.
