Watch winder question - I now have 3 automatic watches and was wondering what watch winders are recommended? I’m hoping for one that can hold up to 4 watches. Have done some research and wondering if I have to pay for a Wolf or if there’s a cheaper brand that’s still effective, quiet and won’t damage the watches.

^this. I also scored a wolf 3-watch winder on Amazon Prime day at a major discount.

I own maybe 3 dozen automatic watches, have never owned a winder. Unless you plan to expand your winder collection at the same pace as your watch collection it seems silly.

I’ve posted pics of my collection before :) don’t know if I have a recent one, I’ll grab one tomorrow

Be prepared to be chastised by your watchmaker when you bring them in for service if you keep your watches on a winder.

“You don’t leave your car running all night when you get home from work, why would you do the same thing to your watch. Let it rest.” This was an actual quote when I brought my first edition black bay bronze in for its first servicing (5 year mark) this week.

Do the companies that crank these things out (and other products on Amazon) just generate random English-sounding names for their brands and products?

My in-laws used to own a jewelry store, and they had this Omega quartz watch in their storage. I can understand why this wasn’t sold during their clearance sale lol. I had no idea Omega made stuff like this in 1987! I guess they couldn’t help it after the rise of quartz watches in the 70s to 80s. I doubt they’re worth anything even to this day. I see them on eBay for $700-1200, so who knows…

Have a fundamental question: why would an AD give a discount on a brand new Rolex? Is it similar to car dealers giving discounts on inventory on the lot? Or the discounts only apply to pre-owned? And if an AD does give a discount on brand new, what range should I be looking at?

I have two of these - they’re each 4 years old, battle-tested and keeping perfect time. Ronda movement in a US assembled case... very good 800-1k range watch for a wide range of wearability.
