Do We Need Watch Winders?

[padi56]

I have one bought for me several Christmases ago,its a rapport very nice box I looked at it and put it back in the cardboard box its still in the attic.Yes I have have a few bad years health wise beginning of this year did not think I was going to be still alive today.But I still got the use of my fingers and quite capable of using the winding crown after all thats what is for.And yes it must take all of 30 seconds to wind and set any watch, I feel so sorry for all those who find this a terrible chore to do.But if you did have a watch with many many complications like say a Patek.Then yes they could be a pure convenience as they are quite difficult to re-set, thats why Patek gives them free when you buy one of there many complication watches.But for Rolex watches that have mostly a simple date complication IMHO machine winders just plain humbug and not needed at all..
