Winding Boxes
Hey Y'all,
I'd like your opinions! Which make should I get...Wolf Designs are nice and pricey but I hear they turn an excessivce number of times per day? I know this has probably gone around a million times but I would love some guidance! Thanks in advance! Spencer |

Read through the forum, as you said it has been covered a million times
BUT you get what you pay for. Wolf and Orbita are the two most popular brands, there are a couple others that are even higher end BUT you can't go wrong with an Orbita, their Sparta is a great deal. Check their website and you can buy direct, sometimes they are running very good deals on old models. Good luck, many will tell you a winder is a waste of money as it takes 30 seconds to set your watch and you do not need to keep them running BUT myself I like to keep the ones I wear most on winders (Orbita) ready to go.

I don't know, these brands are very expensive and this is just a mid-price watch forum.....

Big Hat....tsk, tsk...nice to be remembered.
SparkySRNA...most of the folks on this site have a good grasp of watch winders and the value you get with each brand. As stated before here...the cheaper ones will usually do the job but not near as well as the Orbita's or brands of their quality. I, personally, do not use one but if I had my choice it would certainly be one of the Orbita standard.
