Having, until recently been a one watch person for two or three years, a JLC Reverso DuoTime, manual wind, the question of watch winders really did not enter my consciousness, that was until a couple of weeks ago when I added an Explorer II which of course is an automatic watch. I have read the various comments for and against, above and thank the writers for what they have said. My own opinion on the issue leans towards not using a winder, that way I prolong the need to service my 2 watches and I agree, watches spend months, in fact years in jewellers windows and are not wound. I take the point about accuracy but if you require that level of accurate timekeeping buy a £10.00 Quartz watch. Even the radio controlled clock that we have in the kitchen is adjusted from a location in Rugby on a regular basis so why do I have an issue adjusting the time on my wristwatches?
