Watch Winder Smith Watch Winder Double for Automatic Watches – Bamboo Watches Winder Box 2 with Quiet Motor 4 Rotation Mode Setting

very nicely done
The basic job of a watch winder is just to spin the watches around every now and then to keep them wound. Watch Winder Smith went above and beyond to build a beautiful bamboo box that’s super quiet, can run on batteries or AC, and shows your watches off in the clear display window. The fact that it’s such a nice product helps assuage my guilt at being too lazy to wind and set my watch.

Quiet, reliable, elegant
I was looking at watch winders and originally purchased two Wolf Cubs (1 watch and 3 watch), they both stopped working after a month. The manufacturer took care right away and refunded me. I didn’t particularly like the style of the other brands, I find some of the wooden one very tacky (you need to get into the $1,000 range to find classy ones) and some others like the Versa don’t have a glass/plexiglass cover so the watches get dusty.I decided to give this one a try because I like the 45 degrees angle and the fact that it’s the same size as a single watch Wolf Cub but fits 2 watches. (BTW the listing shows the two slots being different sizes but they’re actually the same size, you can use a smaller pillow).But the main reason why I didn’t like the other brands is because of their pillows. Wolf uses pillows that are so strong people actually think there is a spring inside, I opened them and it’s just mattress style foam. It’s way too strong so it’s ok on steel bracelets but it was stretching my leather strap. The issue is that the pillow doesn’t have the shape of a wrist so the stretching was giving a rectangular shape. I just don’t understand how a dedicated watch accessory manufacturer would engineer something like that.Watch Winder Smith’s pillows are shaped like a wrist and they’re made of a different type of foam.So at 7″ all around it fits 2 watches rather than only 1, the pillow fits the watch correctly, it’s battery operated so you can put it anywhere and take it with you and because it’s slanted at 45 degrees is more pleasant to look at (other brands have the top and sides way too thick so you don’t really enjoy the watch)Overall unless you’re willing to spend $1,000 on top winders this is the best on the market.One thing though, I emailed the manufacturer because I was wondering if they carried or had plans to make a smaller unit for just 1 watch, so it fits smaller spaces and can be carried in the suitcase more easily so hopefully we can get a smaller version. This version is nice on countertops etc but it would be nice for when traveling.(I used both batteries and power adapter)

Watch rotations per day
I have this product and it works well. I can’t seem to locate the user manual. I know there are four modes 1-4, but does anyone know how many turns per day each mode produces? My watch is supposed to only have 650 turns per day in a watch winder.

Top notch winder
I’ve had three watch winders before this one since my wife and I bought our Rolex watches. Each of those have been noisy enough to be banished from the bedroom. The last one had a rub between two plastic parts which sounded like a bull frog. So I was very wary of buying any replacement for fear it would be as bad as the last three. So far this one has exceeded my expectations. When the box arrived I was impressed with the packaging – No cheap box with a little bit of tissue paper. This winder was very well packaged with plenty of shock absorbing material. The unit itself is really good looking. When I loaded it with our watches and turned it on there was no motor noise at all. There are 4 modes of operation, each with a different number of turns per day which probably doesn’t mean much to most of us but then they relate each mode to how much you wear your watch making it easy to choose a mode. The only minor issue is the blue LED which is on steady when running and blinks while it is between periods of turning. After the first night I covered the LED with a sticker provided in the box and it became a non-issue.I highly recommend this winder.
