Carrera Porsche Chronosprint TPD & Winder Settings | Swiss Watch Store

Left unworn, the TAG Heuer Carrera Porsche Chronosprint will run down within a couple of days — a correctly set watch winder stops that happening. This model carries reference CBS2011.FC6529. It is powered by the Calibre TH20-08 movement. Here is the TPD and direction this model calls for.

TPD and Winding Direction

The correct setting for the Carrera Porsche Chronosprint 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 TH20-08

Why the Correct Setting Matters

Too few turns and the Carrera Porsche Chronosprint 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 Carrera Porsche Chronosprint

For the Carrera Porsche Chronosprint, look for a programmable winder offering a 800 TPD bidirectional programme. One watch? A single winder. Two or more automatics? A double or triple winder keeps the whole rotation ready. You'll find suitable models in our watch winder collection — check the programme list before you buy.

Which winding direction should I use?

Bidirectional — the winder should rotate in both clockwise and anticlockwise directions.
