kingkitesurf Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 Just thought I let the serious collectors know here that I have invested in and tested my watchwinder for two weeks now and it's excellent, relatively cheap and very, very quiet. It is a professional unit but for 199 eur you can wind 4 watches on it... take a few extra springs and change the watches for each night. It will keep them all running. There is a time-switch with it that goes in the socket (I bought a digital one for 10 eur here in NL). Every time it comes on the winder changes direction. It looks so cool... so industrial It is the MTE from www.timedesign.de for those who are interested. I have been looking for nice affordable high quality winder for so long and this just seems to cut the cake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many winders only last 3-4 months. Please keep us informed in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingkitesurf Posted December 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 I think I did not mention but I bought this one because it is the one that my watchmaker has been running for over 20 years now. He still uses it daily. It is specially for professionals. Thats why I choose it. These MTE machines have been around longer than I have been myself.
