Understanding MB&F Winding Settings

Every MB&F automatic watch has specific winding requirements determined by its movement caliber. The two key settings are:

  • TPD (turns per day) — the number of rotations per 24 hours. MB&F movements in our database require between 800 TPD.
  • Direction — clockwise (CW), counter-clockwise (CCW), or bidirectional. This depends on the rotor winding mechanism in each caliber.

Using the correct settings ensures your MB&F stays accurately wound without over-stressing the movement. The Time Machine app automatically applies the right profile for your specific model from our database of 3 MB&F references.
