Super Chronomat B01 44 TPD & Winder Settings | Swiss Watch Store
An automatic like the Breitling Super Chronomat B01 44 only stays accurate while its mainspring holds charge. This model carries reference AB0136. It is powered by the Calibre B01 movement. Set your winder to the figures below and the Super Chronomat B01 44 stays wound, accurate and ready to pick up.
TPD and Winding Direction
The correct setting for the Super Chronomat B01 44 is 800 turns per day, bidirectional: 800 turns per day with the rotor turning in both directions.
| Turns per day (TPD) | 800 |
| Rotation direction | Bidirectional |
| Movement | Calibre B01 |
Why the Correct Setting Matters
Too few turns and the Super Chronomat B01 44 stops between wears; the right figure keeps the mainspring in its sweet spot, where the movement runs most consistently. And there is no risk in experimenting: a modern automatic cannot be overwound on a winder, because the mainspring's slipping bridle releases excess tension. Getting the setting right is about convenience and accuracy, never about avoiding damage.
Choosing a Watch Winder for the Super Chronomat B01 44
The key feature to shop for is programmability: independent TPD and direction controls that cover 800 TPD bidirectional. Single-watch winders are ideal if the Super Chronomat B01 44 flies solo; multi-watch winders make sense the moment you own two or more automatics. Our watch winder collection covers both.
