Watch Winders.
Hi Guy's.
I want a watch winder for my Rolex but the prices are atlease over £200 . Do you guy's pay this amount because I have heard people say on here they get them of eBay for £40 or so. I just want a good deal . PS : I will not buy anything over £50. Best Regards , From Alex |

Eilux winders are good value for the money, Alex. You can google the Eilux site and have a look.

I second Bo, I have 2 Eilux 3 head winders and have never had a problem with either one. I also bought one of the cheaper winders you are talking about, it worked fine for the first 3 months and then it just died. I don't know if anyone else on here has had better luck with them, but my experience is to spend a little extra money and get good quality winder like eilux.

before someone says it I will: You get what you pay for and a cheap winder will not last long oh and that little pearl, wear the watch instead its cheaper than buying a winder !!

Don't mean to highjack the thread but had a question. Does Eilux get the nod from everyone as the most reasonable for the money? I want to get my parents a winder. Thanks |

Out of all the winders I have owned over the years, Eilux is the only one that has not failed on me. They just released a new version of their 3 head model that I really like, if it is winding when you go to open it, it will stop winding when opened and then resume operation once it is closed. Very nice construction and it has an optional valet stand it can rest on that will store 4 or 5 watches nicely. Sure there are more exspensive winders out there like orbita and Scatola del Tempo, but in terms of value for your your money Eilux is hard to beat
