    I am looking to purchase a watch winder for my annual calendar and aquatimer, but getting really confused between all the various brands and makes.
    Should I go for a winder with a Swiss motor, underwood or kubic, or a Japanese motor fitted in the hillwood or wolf units.
    The unit needs to be quiet in operation and look smart too!

    Any guidance would be appreciated!

    I'm a fan of the latest wolf ones because they are quiet & programmable and look nice. IWC used to offer IWC rebranded wolf ones as gifts - and if it's good enough for them, well...

    Good luck,
    Thang

    I use the new wolf double winder for my IWC pilot chrono. Very quiet and can run on D batteries for 6 months. Amazon has great deals on them.

    Hi ren,

    There's a few work double watch winders, is it the 2.7 model? Roadster?

    Thanks

    Hello Markella and welcome to the forum. I really like the Kubik winders although the sales and support in the US is atrocious. I like that they are compact, really high quality, can be fully programmed (exact number of rotations per day and direction) and look gorgeous. They operate forever on C batteries, are silent and will easily fit in a safe. And Swiss made.
