    Hello All, Happy Holidays!!
    Shopping for a quite and good watch winder, should hold 6 to 8 of my watches. Any suggestion on the brand? I prefer the one works on battery power so that the winder can be kept in side a safe.
    Thanks

    I have a Scatola del Tempo with 3 winders and 4 more slots up top. When I got it 15 years ago it was around 4K.

    Buben & Zorweg is another good brand.

    I have a Wolf Designs 6 watch winder, the Roadster version.

    Very high quality and workmanship, completely quiet, I've had it for a year with no issues. It allows you a few choices of rotation direction or combination and number of turns per cycle. That 6-watch unit is AC only, but the triple watch units can run on D cells or AC.

    I have a Scatola and 2 Orbitas. The rotors on the Orbitas are individually adjustable. The rotors on the Scatola (older model, I don't know about the newer models) are adjustable but one adjustment affects all the rotors simultaneously.
    I have read some bad reviews on the Wolf regarding reliability so I stayed away from Wolf even though they appear to be even more adjustable than the Orbitas. I'm glad GordonC hasn't had any problems with his Wolf.

    I have a couple of Orbita 6's that have been running non stop since 2002. And a 16 that's been running non stop since 2009.

    So, I'm an Orbita guy. :)
