Using your Wolf Designs cub double watch winder is easy. First, open the cover and place your watch gently into the rotator drum. The lock - in cuff will secure it in place. You can choose to power it using the included universal AC adapter or AA batteries (not included). If you use batteries, lithium ones will last longer. Once powered, it will start rotating after a 10 - second delay. It rotates 900 times a day with pre - set pause and sleep phases. Keep it in a dry and clean place. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or moisture. If you want to store it, make sure to turn it off first. And that's it! Your watch will always be ready to go.
