You need both CW & CCW with 650 turns.

Orbita makes beautiful single watch winders.

Check them out here: www.orbita.com

Although a Rolex winds both ways it needs around 600 -700 turns a day to keep its power reserve topped up after a full manual wind.But the best winder is the wrist it was bought for, its not a problem to rest any Rolex watch.Then just wind it thats what the winding crown is for, then re-set time date takes just seconds to do.Myself not a fan of any watchwinders with any watch thats just got a simple date complication they are purely just a convenience.
