The best Swiss Kubik watch winders

Posted on 12 December 2019 at 3:27 PM

Swiss Kubik watch winders are not only famous for their quality and compact design, they also are famous because of their great functionality. Swiss Kubik is a Swiss watch winder brand which produces all models in Switzerland. Therefore every Swiss Kubik watch winder is Swiss made, just like watch brands such as Breitling, Rolex, Oris, Tag Heuer etc etc. Of course it’s nice to have a Swiss made watch winder for your Swiss made automatic watches.

Why do we like Swiss Kubik watch winders? First of all because of their compact designs which makes them handy to use. Even in a safe because they work a long time on a set of batteries. Secondly we like the simple and easy way to use the watch winders. They are suitable for any watch, and because of the availability of larger and smaller watch holders the Swiss Kubik watch winders are suitable for big and small watches.

The price is important as well. The Swiss Kubik watch winders are not cheap. That’s logical as they are fully made in Switzerland. Thereby they have a Swiss motor which offers a low sound level. The retail prices are fair considering the quality and functionality. Also note that each Swiss Kubik watch winder comes with 3 years of warranty, where other brands mostly provide 2 years.

We have tested many watch winders, but Swiss Kubik is one of our favorites. We have never experienced any defect in all tests we did. They are easy to use and can be placed anywhere in house or in your office. We placed them on our desk for example. We also experienced that the Swiss Kubik service is very good and they have a wide spread dealer network. For example www.watchwinders.com does also sell Swiss Kubik as official dealer. This webshop offers the best Swiss Kubik watch winders, a big collection and quick delivery.

If you want to have a good watch winder for your automatic watches then a Swiss Kubik watch winder is a very good choice. Always buy from an official dealer to have certainty regarding origin, best price and good (after sales) service.

The best watch winders under 250 euro

Posted on 18 November 2019 at 1:17 PM

You love automatic watches but don’t want to spend a lot of money on a watch winder? We understand your point, as a watch winder is an accessory and your watches are the most important. On the other hand you want to have a good watch winder for a reasonable price. Which watch winders under 250,00 euro are the best?

Cheap watch winders

Under 250,00 euro you can find a lot of watch winders. But are these watch winders all good? The answer is no. We see a lot of watch winders which are offered on platforms such as Amazon, Ebay and Alibaba which are really cheap. These watch winders won’t last for a long time and can even damage your automatic watch as normally they don’t have any overwind protection. Mostly these watch winders have Chinese motors and technique. Cheap yes, but for the long term it’s better that you choose for a real watch winder brand. One of these brands is Benson, based in the Netherlands.

Benson Compact Series watch winders

The new Compact Series from Benson combine all elements you need to safely wind your automatic watches. These watch winders are available for 1 or 2 automatic watches and each rotor can be set individually. Therefore you can select each rotor in terms of direction and TPD (turns per day). The watch holder is suitable for any watch, big or small. The powerful Japanese motors are strong enough to wind even heavy watches. With the LCD panel you can set and control each rotor. The Benson Compact Double watch winders even do have LED light. The Benson Compact Single watch winders do run on mains (adapter) and can function on a set of batteries.

As said there are two models, for 1 or 2 watches, and several colours to choose from. Each Compact watch winder is covered by leather in colours as black, carbon fibre, blue, dark brown and light brown. Benson also introduced a special Holland edition in the Compact single series. Of course you get at least 1 year warranty, adapter and a manual.

Other watch winder brands to consider

You can also look for other brands which could be attractive for you. For example brands as Heisse & Söhne, Paul Design, Spin-R and Designhuette have specific models under 250,00 euro which are good. You can spend you money just once, so compare different models and brands and then decide.

If you have a bit more money to spend the above brands also do offer suitable watch winders. These models often have more functions and a more luxurious design. A good watch winder doesn’t have to expensive, Benson proves this, but cheap watch winders (often white label) with a lot of Chinese technique are not the watch winders we recommend.

Bernard Favre Planet double-axis watch winder

Posted on 31 October 2019 at 1:35 PM

There are several Swiss watch winder brands, and one of the best is Bernard Favre. This brand creates high end watch winders made of beautiful materials. But even more special is the way how they wind an automatic watch.

Bernard Favre Planet watch winder

Bernard Favre’s double-axis Planet watch winders keep your automatic watches wound at an optimal level so that they are ready to wear at a moment’s notice. They look fantastic and are mesmerizing to watch in operation. They are a piece of art.

Unlike many watch winders on the market, the double-axis Bernard Favre Planet does not overwind watches thanks to the nine program options, ensuring an optimal winding setting for any automatic watch. There is even an eye-catching exhibition program if drawing attention to a featured watch is the aim. A concealed switch in base selects programs, while a slot for a USB key allows for loading custom winding programs adapted to your watch’s calibre. This makes the Bernard Favre watch winder a perfect watch winder for those watch collectors with watches from Breitling, Omega, IWC, Patek, Tag Heuer etc etc.

The Bernard Favre Planet double-axis watch winder is made to the highest Swiss standards and features a black sandblasted base with leather option, and with polished, black or gilded stainless steel rotation rings. The quiet, high-efficiency Swiss made motor runs for three months on a single charge on the standard program and is ultra-silent thanks to acous-tically-sealing O-rings in the base. The battery is quickly charged by a simple USB cable and can be left permanently connected. An elegant glass dome both protects the watch from dust and curious hands as well as adding to the mystery of the kinetic ballet within.

Each Bernard Favre watch winder comes with 2 years warranty, manual and adapter. The watch winder is very easy to use, gives a beautiful view on the watch and is made of the best materials. As a real watch collector what do you need more?

You can find the complete Bernard Favre watch winder collection at Watchwinders.com.

Buben & Zorweg Illusion watch winder

Posted on 26 September 2019 at 4:07 PM

Buben & Zorweg calls it a Masterpiece, a word that perfectly echoes what the Illusion is all about. Within the impressive facade of its towering silhouette, one discovers a fascinating and unusual design that blends cutting edge innovative technology with a fine selection of highest-quality materials. Considered by many as a sculptural piece of modern design in its own right, the Illusion has a hidden purpose that most observers cannot immediately discern. A purpose that might seem like an unexpected illusion capable of playing with one‘s senses!

As is often the case in daily life, there are occasions when one wants to protect certain valuables - watches, jewellery, accessories, or perhaps documents or cash, without the effort of going to a safe. Place it on a desk, in a dressing room or use it as an eye-catcher in the living room just for the pleasure of its owner. It blends in perfectly.  That is, until the hidden safe is unlocked by way of a fingerprint or a transponder chip and the contents rise elegantly upwards as if touched by magic.

With the Illusion, Buben & Zorweg's passion for innovative design finds clear expression in many details, such as the drawers that pivot outwards to one side to present you with their contents. And if one would like to swap a favourite watch during the day? No problem; two or, if prefered, four watch winders in the table safe make it easy to store and select the right choice.

Since its launch, the Illusion has held a presence in the most prestigious and exclusive exhibitions around the world. This illustrious World Tour will now see the Masterpiece exhibited in the esteemed SIAR, the „Salon Internacional de Alta Relojeria“ in Mexico City between the 15th and the 17th of October. From this first-class reference point for Haute Horlogerie events in America, the ILLUSION will then travel to Dusseldorf, Germany, where the newly created Watchtime Dusseldorf exhibition will take place from the 25th to the 27th of October.

The new Benson Black Series Pro watch winders

Posted on 19 September 2019 at 12:13 PM

One of the best watch winder brands that offer a very good price/quality ratio is Benson. This Dutch brand is one of the most promising brands in the field of watch winders. The brand combines quality with sustainability and functionality.

This Dutch watch winder brand recently presented its latest models in the Black Series Pro collection. This collection contains watch winders with an extra large capacity for winding automatic watches. The Pro 12.19 and 16.19 models are suitable to wind 12 or 16 watches. The news is that Benson will soon be presenting two new models that are suitable for winding up 20 and 24 automatic watches. These new models have the same design and technology as the current Benson Black Series Pro models. 

The Benson Black Series Pro watch winders are characterized by a sleek and modern design, state-of-the-art technology, touch screens, LED lighting and individual control for each winder. This allows you to wind each watch individually according to the direction of rotation and the number of revolutions per day. The watch holder is adjustable so that it is suitable for every type of watch. You can wind watches from Rolex, Omega, Breitling, Patek, IWC etc etc. These watch winders from Benson will wind any automatic watch, regardless brand or model. 

The strong glass door of the Benson Black Series Pro watch winders offers a perfect view of the rotating watches and is also lockable by a key. On the inside of the watch winder you will find two touch screens to adjust each rotor individually and a drawer in which extra watches or other jewelry can be stored.

Benson Black Series Pro watch winder

For the true watch enthusiast, a watch winder is a must have. However, for the real collector, a large watch winder with space for many automatic watches is a requirement. With the Benson Black Series Pro watch winders you have all watches directly available, safely stored and always ready to wear immediately, without having to wind the watch manually first. This not only saves a lot of time, but also improves the durability of the watch. After all, for manual winding and setting the time correctly you have to open the crown. The crown is one of the most vulnerable parts of a watch and you prefer to open and close as little as possible.

The Benson Black Series Pro watch winders are currently available for 12 and 16 watches, in the exterior colors black and carbon fiber. The new models that are suitable for 20 and 24 automatic watches and will be available soon. We already tested the version for 16 watches, and when the new models are as good they will be hard to resist for the watch collector who wants the best for his or her watches.
