OT: Watch winders?

[AngryScientist]

i generally wear one of my auto watches every day, but lately, i might find myself away for a week or so where i travel with a different watch.

i've become interested in a single watch winder that i can throw my daily driver watch on for a week or so and have it stay wound and ready to wear.

looking for something of decent quality, but dont need a Cadillac model.

does anyone have a recommendation?

I have this one for my Submariner. Now that I am retired, I hardly ever wear it, so I got a watch winder. This watch has been with me since 1999.

Super quiet, super reliable and very good looking.

May be more than you want to spend though.

If you're willing to spend a few bucks, I'd go with a Wolf. The singles aren't insanely expensive and the quality is top-notch. On the cheap brands, you typically get what you pay for.

do you have a cat? use the spare watch as a collar and make him good for something

I 2nd Wolf. Had one that had an issue and Wolf replaced it no questions asked outside of warranty. The issue was the AC adapter. Instead of sending just a AC adapter they sent me a whole new unit.

Really?

People spend $300 (or more presumably) to buy a contraption that winds their watch.

Ain't that just the darndest thing. :-)

I had no idea.

I purchased one of these in July and a 2nd one about a month later. Obviously that's not a long term endorsement but so far they've been stellar. It's quiet and has several options for winding. The seller also has single winders from the same brand available.

"Watches not included"

I'll do it for free... All you do is pay shipping. Tell me when you want it, it will be sent overnight...

Far better than a watch winder... No watch winder can ever approach the realism of a real wrist!

I'll be waiting

That’s a pittance compared to what some watches cost...

You wouldn’t need a watch winder with that one.

Oh sure, but my watch cost $49 and unless I'm doing something wrong it's never needed winding.
