Post Your Watch Winders!

Hello everybody!


Just wanted some info on watch winders. Might as well create a thread so everyone can show off too!

Please shed some light on watch winders too. What should i look for? movement? Brand? Price? Good deals?

Not looking into a single winder because thats very limiting! I need room for more future watches!

Thanks and now post your post your watch winders!

I have an ebay winder and an orbita winder.

The orbita winder is still in the box waiting for the right time to pounce - i.e. when I get my grail.

I personally have an Orbita Monaco 3 which has been a great winder. Don't worry about all the haters on winders as they really are great to have. When you have multiple watches and want to quick swap out it is very convenient, also the quality and beauty of the Orbita is a great way to display the beautiful watches in your collection.

Here's the Murano

I have two quad winders from Rotolution and would highly recommend them. Very attractive, well built and completely programmable.
