/rəˌmɑnˈtwɑr/

Forms: 1700s– remontoir, 1800s– remontoire.

Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French remontoir.

Etymology: < French remontoir mechanism for winding a clock (1641), mechanism by which a uniform impulse is given to the pendulum or balance of a timepiece (early 19th cent. or earlier; perhaps short for remontoir d'égalité , also early 19th cent. or earlier) < remonter remount v. + -oir (see -ory suffix¹).

Clockmaking.

A mechanism, typically involving a weight or spring, by which a uniform impulse is given to the pendulum or balance of a clock or watch at regular intervals, providing a more constant power supply for timekeeping than the primary power source. Frequently attributive.
