Posted on 23 September 2020 at 8:09 AM

The true connoisseur of automatic watches knows that a watch winder can be seen as an indispensable accessory for this hobby. There is therefore a wide range available in this area. Watch winders can be found in all sizes and types, price ranges and different quality. If you do not have a large budget available to purchase a watch winder or do not need all kinds of luxury functions, but are simply looking for a solid and efficient watch winder, there are still plenty of suitable options left.

Benson Easy Z2 watch winder

With a more expensive watch winder you will see the difference in material use, but the number of functionalities will also be more extensive with a watch winder in a higher price range. In addition, the more expensive brands often pay a lot of attention to the appearance of the watch winder, which will make it a valuable addition to the interior and any collection from an aesthetic point of view. If you are looking for a watch winder for winding several watches at the same time, you will generally also end up in the higher price ranges.

However, if you are looking for a watch winder for one or two watches, for example, it is quite possible to purchase a watch winder for less than 200 euros. This is an entry-level price level, where you don't have to worry about compromising on quality. In this blog, we will look for the three best watch winders for under 200 euros to make your search a lot easier. We have focused on a good motor, as this is the heart of a watch winder. These watch winders have little luxury, but are absolutely functional and effective.

The models that we highlight here are from the young Dutch brand Benson Watchwinders. Benson watch winders supplies high quality watch winders that are solid, durable and reliable. Because Benson manufactures these in-house, it is possible to offer a very good price/quality ratio. You will find quality watch winders for a competitive price at this brand. And that is exactly what we were looking for!

The first watch winder we want to name is the Benson Compact 1.17 Black Leather watch winder. In addition to this variant, this model is also available in blue, carbon, light brown, dark brown and the special Holland edition. This means there is something for everyone and a suitable alternative for every taste and interior. This watch winder is made of leather and has a compact design. It works by means of mains power via the supplied adapter, but also on batteries if desired.

This watch winder is suitable for any type and brand of automatic watch. The direction of rotation and number of rotations can be easily set, so that for each automatic watch you have the optimal conditions for an efficient winding. The watch winder has three programs, namely: CW, CC and Alt. A touchscreen, overwind protection and USB connection are also included. With this watch winder you have a watch winder that offers everything you need for a great price!

The next model is the Benson Easy watch winder D1. This watch winder is not only available in black, but also in light brown and dark brown. This watch winder is suitable for winding one automatic watch and is made of wood and high-quality plastic. The watch winder is therefore light in weight, which can be seen as an additional advantage. The Japanese motor is quiet in use, for optimal user comfort. In addition, the watch winder is energy efficient. This watch winder also has the programs CW, CC and Alt and is also adjustable in terms of the number of revolutions and the direction of rotation.

The third and final model that we think deserves a place in the spotlight is the Benson Easy watch winder Z2. This model is suitable for one watch. The Benson Easy Z2 has a very modern look and should be seen as an entry-level model. Thanks to the transparent lid and the modern LED lighting that switches on automatically during winding, you always have a good view of your beloved watch. With the silent Japanese motor you are assured of quality and comfort during the winding process. The number of revolutions is of course adjustable and the watch winder is equipped with an overwind protection.

Paul Design Gentlemen 8 watch winder

Posted on 16 September 2020 at 3:28 PM

A fan of automatic watches knows the advantages of a watch winder. This ultimate watch accessory is not only handy but also good for the preservation of the automatic watches. A watch winder turns the watches around so that they obtain energy and keep running on time. Standstill is not good for automatic watches, especially when it takes too long.

With a watch winder you no longer have to set an automatic watch again and again in terms of time, date and other functions when it is stationary. The watch winder ensures that the watches are supplied with enough energy so that you can wear the watch of your choice immediately. This not only saves time but also a lot of hassle.

Nowadays watch winders are not only an accessory to wind an automatic watch, they are increasingly beautiful interior pieces and “eye catchers”. Take the Paul Design Gentlemen watch winders.

The new Paul Design Gentlemen 8 watch winder

A watch winder from the Paul Design collection that we want to highlight is the Paul Design Gentlemen 8 watch winder. This model is suitable for winding 8 automatic watches and equipped with strong Japanese motors with an extremely low sound level. Each motor drives one rotor with a watch on it. This offers flexibility because you can set each rotor individually in terms of direction of rotation and number of revolutions per day. So you can run one automatic watch clockwise at 900 TPD (turns per day) and another watch counter-clockwise at 1200 TPD. This is important because different watch brands use different types of timepieces. One timepiece gets energy with a different direction of rotation and TPD than the other. The Paul Design Gentlemen 8 watch winder is therefore suitable for all automatic watches. It doesn't matter which brand your automatic watch belongs to.

Functions

This is useful because you no longer need a key and other people do not just come to the watch collection. The collection of watches is therefore safe in this watch winder model.

Another advantage of the Paul Design Gentlemen watch winders is the flexible watch holder to which you attach the watches. These are suitable for all types of watches, large and small. This allows you to use this watch winder excellent for men's watches but also for ladies' watches. You then click the flexible watch holder into the watch winder so that it is securely fastened and cannot fall out. Naturally, the watch holders are provided with a layer of luxurious fabric as optimal protection for the watch.

Design and materials

The Paul Design Gentlemen watch winders have a fairly sleek design. The watch winders therefore have a modern character, but the use of materials also gives them a classic touch. The Gentlemen watch winders are available in black shadow, black apricot and macassar version. Each version has its own color and pattern.

The glass door has the advantage that you have a perfect view of the rotating watches. Especially with the LED lighting on, this gives a fantastic image. The watch winder is therefore a real eye catcher that will interest many a friend, colleague or acquaintance. As previously written, a watch winder, especially this luxury watch winder, is an interior piece.

Watch winder for 2 watches

Posted on 8 September 2020 at 2:21 PM

The watch winder is the ideal watch accessory and a "must have" for anyone who owns at least one automatic watch. Using a watch winder is not only convenient and easy, it also has advantages for the preservation of your automatic watches.

A watch winder mimics wrist movement so that the automatic movement within the watch is optimally supplied with energy and the watch is immediately ready to wear. If you do not use a watch winder and the watch is not worn for a period of 32-40 hours, it will stand still. If you then want to wear it, you must first provide the watch with energy by shaking the watch or winding it manually via the crown. Then you have to set the correct time and date. This is inconvenient and time consuming. That is why a watch winder is gaining popularity!

Watch winders come in all shapes and sizes. In this blog we look at different watch winders for 2 watches. For example, if you have one or two automatic watches, this type of watch winder is a suitable model to use.

What should you pay attention to when purchasing a watch winder for 2 watches?

We have been selling watch winders for over 15 years now. As an official dealer of various brands in the middle and higher price segment, we have extensive experience. Based on our experience, we are writing this blog article to familiarize you with when you are looking for a watch winder for 2 watches.

First of all, we advise you to buy a watch winder for 2 watches in which your automatic watches can rotate clockwise, counter-clockwise and alternately. One automatic watch has to be turned clockwise to be wound, the other one must be counter-clockwise. With a watch winder that rotates in both directions, you are flexible, also for any other watches you buy in the future. In addition to the adjustable direction of rotation, adjustable revolutions are also recommended. By setting the number of revolutions per day you can choose exactly the number that your watch requires. Almost all modern watch winders in the middle and higher price segment offer this option.

You don't want to spend too much time setting a watch winder. You should be able to set the watch winder quickly and easily, after which you don't have to worry about it anymore. It is therefore important that you buy a watch winder for 2 watches that is easy to operate, for example through a touchscreen, LCD display or bluetooth such as with the Chronovision watch winders.

Another important part is the watch holder. The watch holder is the part to which you attach your automatic watch and then click into the watch winder. The watch holder must be flexible so that you can attach multiple types of watches to it. In addition, the watch holder must be easy to place in and out of the watch winder. Always check whether a watch holder is properly provided with a soft fabric so that it cannot damage your watch. The watch winders of the Dutch brand Benson have very good watch holders that are flexible and optimally protect the watches. Especially because you click the watch holders in the watch winder for 2 watches so that they cannot fall out.

Our last advice is to buy a good watch winder that you will enjoy for years to come. You can buy a cheap watch winder at Amazon or Ebay, but these are often from unknown brands from China that promise a lot but don't deliver much. Stay on your guard as watch winders are electrical appliances. You don't want to take risks with less quality, do you? We always recommend buying a watch winder for 2 watches from an official dealer, with extensive experience and good advice.

The advantages of a high end watch winder

Posted on 3 September 2020 at 8:00 AM

Choosing a good watch winder is not always easy. There are many different brands and the quality differences are large. In addition, there are many differences in price, materials and functionality. When choosing a watch winder, you also have to think about the capacity of the watch winder, in other words how many watches can be wound in the watch winder. If you only have one automatic watch, you probably choose a watch winder that is suitable for winding one watch. But if you have 6 or more watches, and your watch collection probably changes regularly, you quickly choose a larger watch winder that is suitable for 8, 12 or even 16 watches. You are then flexible and have a watch winder that is suitable for the future.

If you have a nice budget to spend, you can opt for a beautiful high-end watch winder. A high-end watch winder is a watch winder from the higher price segment that is often equipped with better motors, more functionalities and all kinds of nice extras. A high end watch winder is more than just for winding automatic watches. It is also an object for a beautiful interior. In English they call this a “conversation piece”.

High quality motors

The heart of the watch winder is formed by the motor. The motor drives the rotor in which the watch is mounted. It is therefore important that the motor is strong enough but also functions with as little noise as possible.

High end watch winders almost all use Swiss and German motors. A good example are the Swiss Kubik and Orbita watch winders. Both brands are equipped with Swiss made motors. But there are also excellent German motors, which are used, for example, by Chronovision watch winders. Quality motors are extremely important for high end watch winder brands. The customer expects the best and high durability for years of enjoyment from the device.

Material use

Most luxury watch winders are made of very beautiful materials. You can think of wood, stainless steel, gold, carbon and leather. It was decided to use the best materials during production to guarantee an extra nice result. The finish also plays a major role. The best quality is offered with great attention to detail and finish.

Because high-end watch winders are usually made entirely by hand, the production of such a watch winder takes an enormous amount of time. During the production process, specialized professionals are not only busy with the construction of the watch winder itself, but also with quality control.

You can expect from a high-end watch winder that it offers all options to wind one or more watches safely and professionally. This type of watch winder will therefore offer many options to provide an automatic watch with energy. The direction of rotation can of course be selected and you can choose between winding clockwise, anti-clockwise and alternately. In addition to the direction of rotation, you can also choose the number of revolutions per day. In English this is called TPD (turns per day). Each automatic watch needs a different number of revolutions per day to obtain good energy. The most common TPD are 600, 900, 1200, 1500 and 2100. A high end watch winder offers all this TPD, so you can choose the direction of rotation and TPD for each watch.

In terms of functionality, you can also think of built-in LED lighting. This provides a nice view of the rotating watches. This is especially beautiful in the dark. In addition, it is functional because you can see exactly how you click the watches in the watch winder and remove them safely. Nice extras with a high end watch winder include a fingerprint lock, remote control and bluetooth connection. These options are also offered by watch winder brands that are not a high end brand, but do produce fantastic watch winders. A good example of this is Paul Design watch winders.

The advantages of a high end watch winder

We have now listed some features of a high end watch winder, but what are the real advantages of a high end watch winder. We believe the greatest advantages are the quality, durability, functionality and finish.

Quality assures you of a nice watch winder that you will enjoy for years to come. Reliable motors that wind your watches smoothly and safely are extremely important. What is also very important is the functionality. You want a watch winder that is easy and quick to operate, but also where the watches are safe. A high-end watch winder often has a beautiful finish. You can think of a beautiful design, attention to details and beautiful materials. You often recognize a high-end watch winder immediately. This is stylish, luxurious and beautifully designed.

Especially for your beautiful automatic watches, for example from Oris, Omega, Rolex, Breilting or Tag Heuer, you want a good watch winder. You are not placing your beautiful Swiss watches in a cheap watch winder that you are not sure is good for your automatic watches, right?

A good watch winder is part of a beautiful watch collection. It really doesn't have to be a high end watch winder because there are plenty of affordable brands that offer excellent quality. For example, you can take a look at Benson watch winders or Heisse & Söhne.

If you have enough money for a beautiful watch winder, we definitely recommend a high-end watch winder that fits well with your watches but also in your interior. As a beautiful object in your living room, bedroom or office you will certainly have a topic of conversation with your friends, colleagues or family.

New: Benson Swiss Series watch winders

Posted on 28 August 2020 at 2:30 PM

Watch winders from the Dutch brand Benson are now highly regarded worldwide. The brand has expanded enormously over the past 5 years and receives excellent comments from watch enthusiasts and professionals. The brand introduced its popular Black Series watch winders in 2016. A collection of watch winders that is characterized by luxurious designs, excellent technology and good functionality. The interesting prices, which are on average 20-30% lower than competitive models, make these watch winders very popular and probably the best choice in its segment.

Benson Swiss Series watch winders

In addition to the Black Series, Benson now presents its new Swiss Series watch winders. This new collection of watch winders is fully equipped with Swiss technology and is assembled in the Netherlands. This creates a quality product that actually has no competition. Comparable brands offer less quality and functionality and are often priced up to 30% higher.

The Benson Swiss Series watch winders are available in different capacities. There is a choice of models suitable for the winding of 1, 2, 3 and 4 automatic watches. Each model is available in different versions in terms of material and color. You can choose a watch winder made of wood, leather (in different colors), carbon fiber, walnut or macassar.

Swiss motors

The heart of the Benson Swiss Series watch winders is formed by Swiss motors. These motors can therefore carry the Swiss made label and guarantee quality and durability. An important advantage of these motors is that they have an extremely low sound level. The sound level is partly due to the fact that sounds are absorbed by the wooden construction and because every Benson Swiss Series watch winder is fitted with a glass door.

Each watch winder from the Swiss Series collection is equipped with an LCD control system that allows you to quickly and easily set the desired program per watch. Each watch can be individually set because each watch has its own motor. So you can set each motor clockwise, counter-clockwise or alternately and then choose the number of revolutions per day. The model suitable for winding 4 watches is therefore equipped with 4 motors. This gives you optimal flexibility because automatic watches are not all supplied with energy in the same way. In practice, you can wind one watch clockwise at 900 TPD and the other watch counterclockwise at 600 TPD. Especially if you have different automatic watches from different watch brands, this is a necessary feature of the watch winder.

Characteristics

One of the most important features of a watch winder is the watch holder. After all, the watch holder holds the watch while turning. It is important that the watch is securely attached to the holder and that it does not move when rotating or even fall off. The Benson Swiss Series watch winder has a watch holder that can be clicked into the watch winder, so that the automatic watch is securely attached. In addition, the holder is fully adjustable to the size of the watch (and size of the watch strap). So you can place any type of watch in the watch winder, regardless of brand/model or size of the watch.

In addition to decent watch holders, every Benson Swiss Series watch winder has LED lighting that illuminates the watches beautifully while winding. The LED lighting can be activated as desired and is only available when the watch winder is connected to mains power. The watch winder can also work on batteries, but the LED lighting cannot then be activated because the batteries will run out too quickly.

As written, the Benson Swiss Series watch winder works on an included adapter. However, the watch winder can work for several months on a set of batteries. This is ideal if you want to take the watch winder with you on a trip, when you do not have a power outlet nearby or in case you want to place the watch winder in a safe. Because the watch winder works with both an adapter and batteries, you are flexible and you can always wind your automatic watches, regardless of where the watch winder is located.

Compact design

Benson has opted for a compact design for its new Swiss Series watch winders. The watch winders have no extra storage space for other watches or jewelry. The brand consciously opts for a very luxurious look and beautiful materials. These new watch winders offer the best there is on the market in terms of technology and functionality. In addition, the use of materials and finish is of an exceptionally high level. These watch winders can be called extremely luxurious for a reason.

The compact design of Benson Swiss Series watch winders has a few major advantages. You can easily place the watch winders anywhere because they take up little space. As a result, they also fit anywhere in the interior without standing out too much in the environment. The watch winders are elegant and stylish and a connoisseur will certainly notice them.

Affordable luxury watch winders

This new generation of Benson Swiss Series watch winders actually offers everything you need in terms of the excitement of automatic watches. The watch winders are extremely luxurious, functional and each have sustainable Swiss technology. An important advantage is that these watch winders are fully assembled in the Netherlands. This ensures quality. The high quality is emphasized by the 3-year warranty that the brand gives on its models.
A big advantage of this new series of watch winders from Benson is the attractive price. The prices of these Benson Swiss Series watch winders are up to 30% lower than competitor watch winders, which often offer less for more money. As a result, Benson expects this new series to be a great success.

Availability: pre-order

Soon we will present the Benson Swiss Series watch winders on our websites. From that moment on orders can be placed, which are then delivered from production immediately after the watch winders are ready.
