Give away
« on: May 03, 2012, 10:32:17 AM »
Let's have a give away. I have this watch winder (basic unit, no brand) to give away. Just respond to this post and I will randomly choose a name on Sunday and ship the winder on Monday.

Caveat (why? because some smart ass tried to sue me once for a give away):

1. I will cover the shipping cost, the cheapest possible.
2. I will not be responsible if the items gets lost in the mail.
3. I will not be responsible if the item does not work. I have tested it and it works.
4. I will not be responsible for any loss or damage or anything else that may occur in receiving and using the said item.
5. Please note the winder uses 110-120V AC and has the US/ Taiwan type plug.
6. The decision is final.
7. Please, please DO NOT put your name in the give away if you intend to be an ass about it and cannot accept the above.

Thank you.

The give away.

It is a 2 watch winder with fixed rate of winding.



PLEASE NOTE THE POWER REQUIREMENTS. To have the winder rotate the other way, just switch it off, wait 10 seconds and switch it on again.



PLEASE NOTE THE PLUG TYPE.



Mods, please delete if not appropriate.

Yeah, gave away some straps and the person who received it complain that I sent it off late and he did not get too use it for a function. So he tried to ask me to compensate for the loss of use.

Thanks to Hobbit for the give away.

I have noticed that the winder adapts a AC 120V. Just curious, would it be operational in our Malaysian shores? If not mistaken, our supply operates on a 240V, AC. A step down transformer is needed?

Please correct me if I am wrong.

dc,

You are correct, you will need a step down transformer.
