Watch winder safe for winding automatic watches

Posted on 23 November 2020 at 11:29 AM

Unfortunately, it happens more often than you think, a burglary where personal and valuable jewelry is stolen. Besides the fact that it greatly infringes on the feeling of security, you often also lose valuable things, with or without personal value. You hope never to experience this.

Benson Black Series Safe watch winder

Fortunately, there are ways to protect valuable watches and jewelry and reduce the risk of theft. But if you put automatic watches in a safe, they quickly come to a standstill. This is obviously not good for the automatic timepieces in the watches. After all, standing still is going backwards. To prevent this, a good solution has been devised: a watch winder safe. A watch winder safe is a normal safe in which one or more watch winders are built so that you can not only safely store your automatic watches but also keep them wound up, so that each watch runs neatly on time and you can wear it immediately.

Winding watches in a watch winder

Normally you wind automatic watches in a normal watch winder. However, it does not provide protection against theft. These normal watch winders are cabinets made of wood and often have a glass door that is easy to open or even break open. This increases the risk of theft of your watches and/or jewelry. When you buy a watch winder safe you have optimal protection for your watches. You combine the best of both worlds, as it were. Because not only the risk of theft is smaller, your watches are also immediately ready to wear.

A watch winder safe is actually a normal safe with a panel with watch winders that you can set via the controls. Watch winder safes often offer an extra space to store other jewelry. As a result, all valuables are safely protected. The advantage of these safes is that they are quite heavy and you can anchor them to the ground or wall. This makes it very difficult for burglars. The watch winder safes in our collection are also all equipped with locks made in the EU, which guarantees quality and security. The Benson Black Series watch winder safes have a Wittkopp electronic locking system, made in Germany, that is very highly regarded for safety, durability and ease of use.

Benson Black Series Safe watch winders

The Dutch watch winder brand Benson Watchwinders has become known for its popular Black Series watch winders. This collection of watch winders has models that are suitable for winding 1 to 24 automatic watches. These watch winders are now sold by more than 250 high-end jewelers worldwide. The brand is very strong in producing high-quality watch winders at a very competitive price. That is why many watch enthusiasts have a Benson watch winder for winding their automatic watches.

However, Benson also has a few very interesting watch winder safes so that the watches are completely safe when wound up. The Benson Black Series Safe watch winders are perfectly suitable for those who want to safely store their precious watches and at the same time also want to wind them so that they are immediately ready to wear. The Benson Black Series watch winder safes are made entirely in the EU and have the advanced Wittkopp lock system for maximum security. You open the safe with a code by means of this electronic system. The built-in watch winders are equipped with the latest Benson Black Series technology. These are Japanese motors for every watch and a modern touchscreen with which you operate every rotor. The built-in LED lighting provides a beautiful sight for the rotating watches, but also from a functional point of view it is useful to have extra light in the safe.

The Benson Black Series watch winder safes have a powder coating in the color black. Connect the adapter at the back so that the watch winder is active. This allows you to place the watch winder safe in almost any place. Of course you can then anchor the safe to the wall or ground, so that you create extra security.

The advantages of a watch winder safe

In fact, we have already listed all the benefits of a watch winder safe in this blog article. Safety is of course paramount. Especially when you have more expensive watches and jewelry, it is best to keep it safe. But also if your watches or jewelry have sentimental value, it is recommended to protect them as well as possible. It is very annoying when jewelry that you have inherited or received from a loved one is stolen.

The second advantage is of course that the watch winder in the safe ensures that your automatic watches are always supplied with sufficient energy. This allows you to take any watch directly from the safe and put it on your wrist. You don't have to wind it again and set the time and date. The watch is immediately ready to wear. This saves time but also inconvenience because otherwise you have to open the crown of the watch to set the time and date. The crown is one of the weakest parts of a watch. You don't want to open and close it often.

Check out the possibilities in terms of watch winder safes on our website. We deliver the safes on a pallet via Fedex. The watch winder safes are immediately ready to use. You only have to connect the adapter to the mains and place the watches in it. Naturally, every Benson Black Series watch winder safe comes with a 2-year warranty, manual and certificate.

Watch winder for 20 watches

Posted on 17 November 2020 at 1:23 PM

A good quality watch winder will wind automatic watches optimally. A watch winder mimics wrist movement, so that it looks like you are wearing the watch. This will tension the spring of the automatic timepiece, and when it relaxes, the automatic timepiece starts running.

Most watch winders are suitable for winding 1, 2, 3 or 4 automatic watches. Usually because most people don't have more watches in their possession. The real watch collector often has several automatic watches and therefore also needs a larger watch winder. There are many different capacities watch winders for, for example, 8, 12, 16 and 20 automatic watches. There are even models for winding 24 watches. The advantage of these larger watch winders is that you can wind many automatic watches in them and you keep all watches in the same place. This saves you time and you can quickly take the watch you want to wear out of the watch winder and put it on your wrist.

Larger capacity watch winders

If you are looking for a watch winder for 20 automatic watches, then you have different wishes than if you want a watch winder for 1 or 2 watches. A watch winder for 1 or 2 automatic watches is often quite compact and has few extra functions besides winding watches. An advantage of this type of watch winders is that you can place them anywhere. You do not need much space to place the watch winder somewhere. A watch winder for 1 watch must above all be functional, the appearance or design is normally of less importance. However, there are also beautiful watch winders for 1 watch, such as the Bernard Favre Planet and Chronvision One models.

Watch winders with a larger capacity have other advantages. It is of course important that you can wind every automatic watch properly and safely. But in addition, larger watch winders offer nice extras such as LED lighting, extra storage space and a lock to close the door. Larger watch winders are often not cheap. You can therefore also expect extra luxury and extra functionalities. A watch winder for 20 watches has a fairly large case that not only provides your automatic watches with energy, but also fits beautifully into any interior. A larger watch winder is therefore more than just suitable for winding watches.

Benson Black Series Pro 20.19.B watch winder

This is a beautiful sight, especially if you activate the LED lighting. The door can also be closed with a lock on the side. This allows you to safely store the watches in the closet.

Benson Black Series Pro 20.19.B watch winder

The core of the Benson Black Series Pro 20.19.B watch winder is formed by 20 motors made in Japan. The motors are individually adjustable in terms of direction of rotation and number of revolutions per day.

With the extra functionalities such as a storage drawer, lock and LED lighting, Benson distinguishes itself from other watch winder brands. But especially the modern technology is a big advantage.

Heisse und Sohne Collector 70019/17 watch winder

Posted on 10 November 2020 at 2:37 PM

For anyone who owns an automatic watch, a watch winder is an absolute "must have" when it comes to this hobby. For the collector it can even be called an indispensable watch accessory. When you collect automatic watches, it is of course impossible to wear them all at the same time. Now an automatic watch is normally powered by the natural movement of the wrist. If this movement is not there, i.e. if the watch is not being worn, the watch will not be wound automatically and will stop at some point. As a fan of your automatic watch, that's not what you want, as it can have unpleasant consequences. Consider, for example, inaccuracies in time and date display, but also wear and tear because you have to manually wind the watch every time and set it correctly in terms of time and date.

Orbita watch winders

Posted on 4 November 2020 at 11:07 AM

The Orbita brand from the United States is one of the leading watch winder brands in the world. By using Swiss technology, beautiful materials and classic designs, they appeal to many watch enthusiasts. The advantages of an Orbita watch winder are many. Not only do the watch winders of this brand wind every automatic watch quickly and professionally, they also look beautiful and can certainly be seen as an interior luxury piece. In addition, every Orbita watch winder is made of high-quality wood and they are equipped with Swiss motors of excellent quality. This combination ensures that Orbita has been very popular in the United States for many years. In Europe the brand is less known but certainly no less popular. As an official dealer of Orbita, we notice a growing interest in the watch winders of this brand. Our experiences are also very positive, especially in terms of quality and finish. As a result, with an Orbita watch winder you are assured of a high-end watch winder of top quality.

What does an Orbita watch winder offer?

As previously written, the Orbita watch winders offer many advantages. The primary purpose of these watch winders is of course to provide automatic watches with energy so that they keep running and indicate the correct time, date and other functions. After all, you don't want your automatic watches to come to a standstill. This is inconvenient, especially when you regularly change the wearing of different automatic watches.

The biggest advantage that an Orbita watch winder offers is the Swiss motor. This motor is of the very best quality and very durable. The motor is the heart of the watch winder and is therefore one of the most important parts of this watch accessory. The Swiss motors that Orbita uses in its watch winders are almost silent in use. This has the advantage that you can place the watch winder almost anywhere without having to worry that the noise level is too high. For example, you can easily place an Orbita watch winder in a bedroom or in the office.

During the production process, great emphasis is placed on materials, build quality and finish. The result must be perfect, so an Orbita watch winder only leaves the factory after various tests and a final inspection. As a result, every user of a watch winder from this American brand is guaranteed a top product. The finish is of a very high level because a lot of time and effort is spent on a perfect result.

Another advantage of the Orbita watch winders is that you can opt for the Rotorwind system. This system does not rotate the watches in the watch winder but gently shakes them up and down. In terms of the winding of automatic watches, this gives the same result, but Orbita says that the shaking is slightly less stressful on the rotor of the automatic movement inside the watch.

Orbita watch winder collection

Now you probably think that Orbita is a very expensive watch winder brand. This is also partly true. The larger watch winders of this brand are not cheap. Take a look at the Orbita Avanti watch winders. You will see that these beautiful watch winders offer everything for a true watch enthusiast.

But Orbita also has much more attractive priced models in its collection. The Orbita Sparta watch winders are in fact much more competitively priced. This series of watch winders is suitable for winding 1 or 2 automatic watches. However, the design has a minimalist look. Its primary purpose is to wind watches. These watch winders have a solid housing without many extras. However, they do what they are very good at; winding automatic watches. The nice thing about these Orbita Sparta watch winders is the price. The models for winding 1 watch cost 279 euros and the models for winding 2 watches cost 529 euros. For these prices you buy an excellent watch winder for winding all automatic watches, regardless of brand or model. With an Orbita watch winder you can easily wind any watch from Oris, Omega, Breitling, Rolex, Nomos or IWC.

Watch winders for 1 automatic watch

Posted on 26 October 2020 at 11:43 AM

As a watch enthusiast, you recognize the problem that your automatic watch has stopped again. You haven't worn it for some time so it doesn't run anymore. You now have to open the crown to reset the time and date and then manually wind or shake the watch again to start running again.

A stationary automatic watch is inconvenient but can absolutely be prevented by placing the watch in a watch winder when you are not wearing it. The watch winder slowly rotates the watch, so that the automatic watch obtains energy. This will cause the watch to run continuously and show the correct time. You no longer have to wind it manually and reset the time and date. This is very handy if you want your automatic watch ready to wear immediately. For example every morning when you have to go to work or when you want to wear your favorite automatic watch when you go to a party. Using a watch winder not only saves you time, but also the continuous resetting and winding of a stationary automatic watch.

Watch winder for 1 watch

If you have one or two automatic watches, it is best to choose a watch winder that is suitable for one or two automatic watches. After all, you don't need a larger watch winder. A watch winder for 1 watch is available in all shapes and sizes. There are many different brands that make excellent watch winders for winding automatic watches. For example the watch winders from Benson and Paul Design. Winding a Breitling, IWC, Omega, Tag Heuer, Seiko or Davosa watch is no problem at all. The watch winders have been developed in such a way that they provide any automatic watch with energy without any problems, regardless of the watch brand or model. The system is simple. The movement of the watch turns the rotor of the timepiece, causing a spring to stretch. When the spring relaxes, it drives the hands and the watch starts running. A watch winder simulates wearing a watch, as it were.

What requirements does a good watch winder for 1 watch meet?

If you have never bought a watch winder or if you want to give a watch winder as a gift to your partner, friend or a family member, then choosing a good watch winder can be difficult. There are so many brands and models. In addition, you have all kinds of different engines that are used in watch winders and you also have big differences in prices. In short, sometimes you just need some help.

When purchasing a watch winder, you should keep a close eye on the following points. The brand matters. There are many different brands, but there are big differences in quality. Always buy a watch winder from a good brand that has proven itself and has a good reputation. You don't want to put an expensive automatic watch in a bad watch winder, do you? This can cause damage to the watch. Therefore, never buy a watch winder with a Chinese motor that are often offered on Amazon, Ebay or Aliexpress. These watch winders do not offer you the quality and finish for a good winding of automatic watches. Often cheap turns out to be expensive in the end. The cheap price seems attractive, but when the watch winder breaks quickly or causes damage to the watch, disappointment follows.

The second important point is the functionality of the watch winder. A watch winder must always be able to turn clockwise, anticlockwise and alternately to wind most automatic watches. In addition, an adjustable number of revolutions per day (TPD: turns per day) is an advantage. This allows you to set the direction of rotation and the TPD to the exact requirements of the automatic watch. A watch that has to be wound clockwise at 1500 TPD will not receive any energy when the watch winder is set to 600 TPD counter-clockwise. You can set a good watch winder for 1 watch yourself in terms of direction of rotation and TPD. This makes the use of the watch winder flexible and you can wind any automatic watch, regardless of brand or model, quickly and safely. It does not matter whether you want to wind a Rolex, Oris or Patek watch.

The last point that is important when buying a watch winder is the motor. The motor is the heart of the watch winder. Watch winders are often fitted with Chinese, Japanese, German and Swiss motors. Do not choose a watch winder with Chinese motors. These motors are of poor quality and quickly break down or make a lot of noise when winding. Japanese motors in a watch winder form a good basis. These motors are used by most brands and have the advantage that they offer an excellent price/quality. Watchwinder brands such as Heisse & Söhne and Boda Concept use Japanese motors. If you want a little more luxury, you will end up with a German or Swiss motor. German and Swiss motorcycles are not much better in quality than Japanese motors, but have a slightly lower noise level, making them slightly more pleasant to use. However, please note that German and Swiss motors are often more expensive, which means that the watch winders that use this type of motor are also more expensive. Good examples of watch winder brands that use German and Swiss motors are Chronovision and Swiss Kubik. In addition, the American high-end watch winder brand Orbita also uses Swiss motors.

Where can you buy a good watch winder for 1 watch?

If you keep a close eye on the above three points, you can easily buy a good watch winder. Your choice then depends on your taste, budget and any other functions that certain brands offer. You can think of LED lighting, fingerprint technology, battery function or a remote control. This extra functionality does not wind the automatic watch any better, but may make using the watch winder a bit more fun and easier.

If you want to buy a watch winder for 1 watch, we advise you to always go to an official dealer. This official dealer has a direct relationship with the brand and has the knowledge and experience in the field of watch winders. This means you are assured of good advice, an original product, a fair price and service in the event of a problem or defect. You just have a lot more certainty. You can also approach a good jeweler. The better jewelers do have knowledge of watch winders, but certainly not all because this product is quite specific. Always ask about the brand, motor and functions. You will soon enough notice whether they are really knowledgeable or not.

We have more than 15 years of experience with watch winders and are official dealer of all our brands, for example Bernard Favre, Orbita, Scatola del Tempo, Swiss Kubik, RDI and Heisse & Söhne. In the Netherlands we also have our own service point where we can repair watch winders and have almost all parts in stock. This ensures a fast and professional service.
