Buben & Zorweg
I owned a Buben Zorweg Vantage 8 Carbon for about 12 years. They don't come cheap though. The earlier edition from the 2000s had very weak plasticy holders which broke from normal usage and had to be replaced every 2 years. This drove me crazy over the years. I've sold it 2 years ago. The newer edition has an updated holder which shouldn't break. The service guys at Buben Zorweg were great as well. The Vantage comes in 4, 8, 12 watch holder variations from what I remember.
I was about to upgrade to the latest version, but.... In the meantime, I swapped to a normal 40 bucks watch case that holds 12 watches.
Good luck with your hunt.

Suggestions for a multi-watch winder and a watchbox.
I've now joined the ranks of those suffering from first world problems; too many watches to wind them manually. I have 8 automatics (and another one coming in the summer, inshallah) and 3 manuals (on the hunt for 6119R for the wife too). I would like to a...

I’ve been looking at the Vantage 18
I would prefer if the entire box was Macassar. ...
Thanks for sharing your experience.
I’ve had my current case (which holds 12) for almost 5 years now, but it was cheap and the cushions have frayed. Hence the need for buying a quality one. Will check these guys out
Bought a Rapport last year which remains quite practical, and have two compact Wolf watch winders.
Though I hardly ever use the watch winders. ...
Thanks. They both look awesome.
Do you just enjoy winding your automatics, or wear them every day?
Thank you. I do enjoy winding them.
If I have to leave the time only watches I just manually wind on my return from travelling.
My experience as follows:
Underwood : I have had a 6 module cabinet for over 20 years. Very well made and not one module has failed since new SwissKubik Masterbox : I have had 3 single units for well over 5 years. Very well made, programmable and reliable Orbita : Again, 3 units s...
Ok here goes
Watch boxes - most of the good ones like Anthony Holt, Buben Zorweg, Smythson, Louis Vuitton (yes they make a beautiful finished but heavy box) and Bella Collezeoni come without a display window as the emphasis on these boxes is on the quality of the wood...
The boss would prefer an “in a closet” set up.
So orbita isn’t out of the running. Thanks NN
