Question:
Dear Sir,
I have several Patek Philippe automatic wrist watches (including complicated and a grand complication/perpetual), a Tag Heuer automatic and others. I currently have an Underwood Roto Box (single) and have been rotating the watches on same as I wear one. I am in need of a 3 or 4 position winder and note the Orbita Siena 3 and Monaco 3 on your website. What are the pluses/minuses of each, including price?
I admit that the extra storage on the Monaco is attractive to me as I have several manual winds, as well.
Also, what, if any, difference is there between the
Orbita Siena 3 Winder and the Siena 3 Best Breitling?
A further consideration is that I have small wrists (and therefore a small strap on each watch). Is sizing an issue for the winders?
I also have a buckle latch on many, but not all, of my watches. Is this of any concern?
Thanks,
Jim
Answer:
As far as the winders, both the Monaco and Siena will wind all of your collection. (for the manual wind watches look at the Orbita Sempre Winder.) I think you already noted the differences the more expensive winder has the extra storage space. The style is different and that is a matter of taste. Both are a good choice.
Now the harder question:
Wrist size and buckles.
Orbita is one of the few watch winder companies that makes different sized watch pillows for their watch winders. If you purchase from WatchCases.com we can pre-order or post order a small wrist pillow for you at no charge. (A $45 per pillow value.)
Buckles are always a problem, only way to know is to try. Most fit into the Orbita system, but trial by fire is the only way to know for sure that is why we offer a money back guarantee if your winder does not work for you.
