watch winder for ladies watches?

We already have a four-place Orbita, but my wife wants something cheaper for her two (both 26mm) Rolexes. The Orbita has two different size cushions to accomodate my 40mm versus her smaller watches. I see a Brookstone model, but don't know if it will fit the smaller watches. Anyone with any input? Or maybe we can use the Orbita cushions in the Brookstone.

My wife is looking for a watch winder for her Ladies DJ too. She has really small wrists (four links taken out) so needs to be one that her watch will clasp around. Any suggestions?

The one at BS looks nice. I don't know much about it though.

I just purchased this one:

I currently have two also (a ladies DJ and also a 36mm) and it seems to work beautifully for them. My wrists are quite small also and the cushions fit very well.


Good luck with your decision.

Orbita can provide a smaller cushion insert for the winders, to work with the smaller bracelet. At least they did for my Tesla.

i have the quad brookstone winder cant say enough good things about it ... only trouble you will run into is that watch pillows will be too big for your wife but all you need to do is get a smaller pillow that fits in.

I have the dual winder from Brookstone and love it. The cushions are a bit large, but I'm sure you could fit it with smaller cushions. Good luck.
