I hear the WOlf and Eilux winders are also great.. Anybody with hands on experience with these, good or bad?

There are some beauties here though!

You are on a Rolex forum talking about silly priced watches.....

If you want to save money perhaps get a different brand of watch.

I have several wolf design winders.

I have several wolf design winders. I have 2 Module 1.5's 2 module 2.0's with storage on top and glass case, and 2 Module 4.0's.

I'm trying to sell the two module 4.0's which are modular and allow you to hook both of them together and one of the module 1.5's. (BNIB btw) i use a module 1.5 near my bed and the two 2.0's on my dresser mirror.

Here are some pics of them.

if u have only one watch, there's no point. but if have 2, or find your rolex is spending a lot of time in the drawer, it's great to have. i have gmt pepsi and eII. until i got winder, gmt pepsi saw way too much drawer time bc i was too lazy to set it each time i wanted to wear it. i have a wolf 2.7.

My Wold Winder

Here's my single watch winder. I am extremely satisfied with it. Especially since I paid so little for it. We were in Florida and the store had a sale 50% off, because this was slightly damaged on the bottom ( glue stuck) they knocked another 50% off. I had a $100 no restriction coupon so it cost me the whole of $4

In addition, there are indicators that show which direction the individual winder is programmed to turn. Each winder can be set to turn CW, CCW or both, depending on the specific watch requirements. Hope this info helps.

I am interested in this winder from Brookstone:

http://www.brookstone.com/automatic-...st1FDT|7847937

I have small wrists - 6.5". As a result, my bracelet watched do not fit properly around the cushions on my watch box. Will I have the same issue with the pillows on this winder??? Would be a wasted purchase if the watch would not stay on the winder!!

Thanks.

Bill,

I own the brookstone double winder. I don't think you'll have any issues with the cushions. i just ordered the quad winder from brookstone yesterday! I've been very happy with the winder.

Thanks for your answer!!! Much appreciated

I ordered the two watch winder. Got free shipping / was around $160 with Tax. Worth a gamble.
