Watch Winder recommendations

My brothers birthday is coming up in July and I wanted to get him a watch winder. He has complained to me in the past about having to wind his watch after a few days of not wearing it, so I immediately thought of a watch winder. Right now, he has two watches, 16613 TT Sub and a Panerai Black Seal. I know he has his eye on the YG Presidential but he hasn't pulled the trigger as of yet. Either way, I did some initial searches and have found http://www.watchwinderstore.com/ but I wanted to know of any recommendations you guys could give me. Any help is much appreciated. Thank you.

P.S. It is his 35th birthday so I wanted something that can be personalized and/or engraved. Thanks again!!!!

Orbita hands down. By the way, that Panerai 183 is manual wind so just a two watch winder should suffice with his future DD.

He already has two they are called wrists, finest watchwinders in the world and they are free.Watch winders are not needed with any watch that just has a simple date complication and the Panerai is a manual wind.Just let them stop and re-wind when needed, why put extra wear on a watch when its not needed to tell the time stuck in some machine box.

+1 on Wolf Designs. I have the Module 2.0 and love it. Elegant case and really quiet.
