I bought a Seiko Kinetic watch that works like an automatic except it charges a battery in the watch. Over the years the battery weakened to the extent it stopped overnight, then started to stop during the day as well before it gave up completely.
After two days in Tutelary the watch showed signs of life and after three it worked well enough to wear for work and has, until a couple of days ago, not stopped. The reason for the stoppage - I put the watch in its winder but forgot to switch it on. Proof it does work.
The winder is relatively quiet, but too noisy for a bedside table. It turns steadily clockwise or anticlockwise selectable on the on/off switch. It would probably work even better if it alternated each way at intervals.
A good buy to keep a watch charged or wound to prevent its deterioration in the first place or restoring one that has.
