Automatic Watch Winders from Versa
Hi all,



Looking at getting a watch winder since i'm already shipping stuff in from USA via VPost for work. Found a few but as usual it's really cheap so i'm thinking of the sound/motor and quality if anyone happens to have one.

Looking to buy in the next day or two. Any advice would be appreciated :)

Design very sleek. Machiam satellite speakers casing with motors fixed within. However, i would be concern about the different TPD settings available for different movement types and calibres.

Exactly, the two watch version looks like a desktop speaker. Very nice.



Most important is whether can select rotation direction and TPD. At least should have clockwise, counter, bi-directional, plus 650 and 800/900 TPD.

Cheers for the response guys!



The features of them are:



Versa Automatic Double Watch Winder in Black Features
[list=1]
  • Spring Action watch pillows with attachments to hold large watches

  • Power adapter included

  • Approximately 342-2160 Turns Per Day depending on setting

  • Watch winder motor has 4 settings for clockwise or counter clockwise direction and bi-directional
    • [/list]

    They both do multiple directions, thanks to an IC chip brain.

    I can't, however, find any TPD data on the single.



    Do you guys reckon I should get the double? it's just 10USD more.

    To me, the double looks cooler. And nobody stops at one when it comes to buying watches right? :)
