Winder is fine. I recommend the cylinder winder because it's completely vertical, so no lateral stress on the winding stem.

While the big box is nice, the smaller one in the cylinder holds the watch at a vertical angle. This allows the rotor to hang freely without any lateral stress. While of course, the parts are engineered to accommodate the gold winding rotor's weight at any angle, I have a personal feeling (not a scientific one) that a fully vertical winder might be better for the watch in the long-term by a tiny margin. So, this winder is fine. But the smaller cylinder one might be better!

How i do it

I confess, i put a part of my collection on a winder. Why? I dislike to adjust the time over and over. So, i do not pull out a crown, i put a watch on my winder. Secure. I check if the watch have enough grip in the winder. Next. When i wear a watch, the r...

Og yes!-thank you Yaco

Sorry for the delay in showing pics of the watch winder BTW-one thing it lacks is variable speed/number of cycles pr. 24 hours-which I think most winders have-It's probably just sticking to a Patek standard-4 round pr. minute and 840 revolutions pr. 24 ho...
Thanks man super useful table. And info.

So the new cylinder has an app connecting to it. That is very cool. Meaning you can probably also monitor the battery levels. The big and beautiful looking watch winder doesn’t have any of that. Can you imagine when the batteries are running out and it st...
Anytime!

Yes the new PP winder app allows you to monitor the battery level via the app and multiple winders at the same time too. Its also got 4 AA batteries, so it should last longer and has a useful function wherein only if you put it horizontal does the winder ...
