Monolingual examples (not verified by PONS Editors)

English

A self-winding watch movement has a mechanism which winds the mainspring. en.wikipedia.org

The principle behind the technology is similar to that of the self-winding watch, in which a rotor on a pivot generates energy from the movement of its wearer. www.theengineer.co.uk

But his idea was probably based on the myth of perpetual motion, and it is unlikely to be a practical solution to the problem of self-winding watches. en.wikipedia.org

This period also marked the appearance of the first in-house self-winding watches and the company won several prestigious awards. en.wikipedia.org
