Watch winder for IWC watch

Posted on 12 March 2025 at 9:02 AM

For the true enthusiast and/or collector, there are watches from a number of brands that everyone will wear with great pride. Of course, this applies to Swiss watch brands such as Rolex and Breitling, but the IWC brand is also a good example of this. IWC stands for ‘International Watch Company’ and is located in Schaffhausen in Switzerland. This is a special fact, since most Swiss watch brands are located in the west of the country, around Lake Geneva. The watches of the IWC brand are characterized by the high Swiss made quality, the expression of pure craftsmanship and the stylish and appealing appearance of the different designs. The watches of this brand are also expensive and are therefore not only purchased as jewelry and accessories, but also as a status symbol.

With an IWC watch on the wrist, every enthusiast is a proud man. An automatic watch such as the respected IWC brand has a special feature. A watch with an automatic movement can function by only providing movement. This movement is provided by the natural movements of the wrist, so that when you wear your automatic watch you can always count on the correct time. However, if you do not have your automatic (IWC) watch on your wrist, it will stop within a reasonable period of time. For example, an automatic watch will stop for between 32 and 42 hours when it is not worn. The result of this is that the watch is not ready for use when you want to wear it. You will then have to reset it and wind it manually. The latter option is not recommended, because you will have to open the crown for this. You should leave this vulnerable part of the automatic watch alone as much as possible, to prevent damage to your watch. Due to the special and advanced operation of an automatic watch, it requires a specific watch accessory, namely a good watch winder. This ensures that you can provide your automatic watch with movement when you are not wearing it, without having to wind it by hand. This is generally done by means of rotation.

Of course, you want to be sure that your automatic IWC watch will not be damaged and can be safely wound in this watch accessory. It is therefore very important to choose quality when purchasing a watch winder. In this context, we would like to tell you more about two high-quality watch winders from the progressive brand Paul Design, which is known for its good price/quality ratio. The two models that we would like to introduce to you also have a larger capacity, making them suitable for the real collector.

The first watch winder that we would like to put in the spotlight is the Paul Design Gentlemen 2+3 Black. This model offers space for winding two automatic watches, with the added bonus of a nice storage space for three other watches. The watch winder is made of wood and finished in the color black. This model can also be closed with a glass door. This prevents harmful influences such as moisture and dust from getting in and still gives you a nice view of your watches. This is further emphasized by the beautiful built-in LED lighting, with which you can put your watches in the spotlight if desired. The Paul Design Gentlemen 2+3 Black is powered by high-quality Japanese motors of top quality, which regulate the winding of your automatic watches in an energy-efficient and silent manner. The watch winder can also be adjusted with the handy control panel, with which you can set the direction of rotation and the number of turns per day for each watch. In this way, each individual watch gets the best possible winding. Because this model can also function on an adapter or batteries, you can place your IWC watch in a safe together with the watch winder. Finally, this design offers the programs CW, CC and Alt and an overwind protection. With this luxurious and very complete watch winder, you never have to worry about your IWC watch standing still!
