The best watch winder for IWC watches

Posted on 2 January 2026 at 7:49 AM

When looking for a beautiful luxury watch, you can choose from stylish models with a quartz movement (battery-powered), a mechanical movement (manually wound), and an automatic movement (powered by movement). An automatic watch is preferred by many enthusiasts because it displays the authentic workings of the timepiece in its purest form. Moreover, this watch truly showcases the watchmaker's craft. An automatic watch functions solely through the natural movements of your wrist when you're wearing it. You don't have to worry about changing a battery. However, when you're not wearing an automatic watch, it's a different story. The watch then requires a different form of movement to prevent it from stopping.

Stopping an automatic watch is undesirable because it can cause inaccuracies in the timekeeping, among other things. Moreover, when your automatic watch stops, it's necessary to reset the time, date, and any other functions. For an automatic watch, such as one from the luxury watch brand IWC, purchasing a good watch winder is certainly not a luxury. In this article, we'll take a closer look at two watch accessory brands that offer high-quality, beautifully designed watch winders, perfectly suited for winding your automatic IWC watch. We're talking about the brands Benson and Paul Design.

Benson watch winders is a progressive Dutch brand. Its collection includes watch accessories with both small and large capacities. Both enthusiasts with one or two automatic watches and avid collectors will find something to their liking. Benson uses beautiful materials for its various designs, such as various beautiful woods, leather, and aluminum. Moreover, there's a wide range of colors to choose from. Benson also offers various motor options for its watch winders. The brand uses both high-end Swiss-made motors and high-quality Japanese motors. This allows the brand to target a wider audience.

Benson is also a strong brand when it comes to value for money. Choosing a watch from this brand's collection offers the perfect combination of high quality, stylish design, impressive technical features, and an attractive price. Several models in the Benson collection offer attractive extras, such as convenient additional storage, built-in LED lighting, and a modern touchscreen. If you choose a design with space for multiple automatic watches, each rotor can be individually adjusted for the number of rotations per day and the direction of rotation. Benson also uses flexible watch holders, making it easy to place your automatic IWC watch in the watch winder. All in all, Benson is an excellent choice as the ultimate watch accessory for your IWC watch and any other automatic watches.

Paul Design is another interesting brand to consider. With Paul Design, you're choosing a brand with an excellent price-to-quality ratio. This was also the brand's goal when it was founded. Paul Design aimed to produce high-quality watch winders with a luxurious character at a competitive price. This has resulted in a beautiful collection of watch winders with a predominantly chic design, without having to pay an exorbitant price. The brand's collection also offers models with various capacities, so there's always a suitable alternative available.

If you're looking for a good watch winder for your IWC watch or any other automatic watch, Paul Design offers everything you need. The rotors of the brand's watch winders are individually adjustable for direction and number of rotations per day. This ensures that every watch is wound in the appropriate way. Furthermore, the brand's watch accessories are equipped with high-quality Japanese motors, which are powerful enough to wind any brand and type of automatic watch. Paul Design watch winders are therefore perfectly suited for your IWC watch. If you wish, you can choose the brand's luxury models for additional storage for other watches, jewelry, or cufflinks. Paul Design also offers designs with built-in LED lighting, a convenient remote control, or a fingerprint lock. Like Benson, Paul Design is a great choice for a complete watch accessory for your automatic IWC watch.

Watch winder for Breitling watches

Posted on 11 December 2025 at 2:38 PM

For the true connoisseur, a luxury watch is more than just a convenient accessory. A watch from, for example, the renowned brand Breitling is also a true statement on the wrist and often a status symbol or valuable heirloom. A watch of this caliber isn't purchased without careful consideration; after all, a luxury watch like Breitling exemplifies a design that falls within a higher price range. If you own an automatic Breitling watch or another luxury watch, you'll want to take as much care of it as possible. This means you need a safe storage place for your watch, where you can feel comfortable storing it when you're not wearing it. Furthermore, an automatic watch has another need that quartz watches (battery-powered) and mechanical watches (manually wound) don't have. A watch with an automatic movement can only function properly when it's properly wound.

With your watch on your wrist, you don't have to worry about this. Your wrist winds your automatic watch through the natural movements you make without thinking about it. However, when you're not wearing your watch, it's a different story. The movement is missing, causing the watch to eventually stop, with various unpleasant consequences, such as inaccuracies. To prevent your automatic watch, for example, from Breitling, from stopping, place it in a high-quality watch winder when you're not wearing it. This not only provides a safe storage space but also ensures proper winding. This provides the watch with the necessary energy and simultaneously distributes the oil within the watch correctly. Besides storage and winding functions, a stylish watch winder also allows you to elegantly display your (Breitling) watch.

Are you looking for a watch winder for your Breitling watch? We'd like to introduce you to two leading brands in this field, each offering a collection of beautiful options suitable for winding, storing, and displaying your luxury Breitling watch. We'll start with the Dutch brand Benson. Benson prioritizes innovation, high quality, and an affordable collection. Within this brand's collection, you'll find luxurious designs with many attractive extra features, as well as more basic models. All watch accessories in Benson's collection are of exceptional quality and crafted from only the finest materials. The collection offers a wide selection of designs with diverse capabilities, ensuring that both enthusiasts with a single automatic watch and true collectors can find what they're looking for in Benson's extensive range.

The Benson watch winder collection also includes models equipped with the well-known Swiss-made motors, as well as designs equipped with high-quality Japanese motors. The brand also offers various attractive extras with various designs in the collection. These include beautiful built-in (multicolor) LED lighting, extra storage space for other watches and jewelry, and a convenient power-winding function. Benson is known for offering high user comfort combined with excellent value for money. A Benson watch accessory is therefore an excellent choice for your Breitling watch or watches!

Another renowned brand in watch accessories, and a household name in the watch industry for many years, is Swiss Kubik. Swiss Kubik offers high-end watch winders recognizable by their compact and cube-shaped design. Swiss Kubik offers models made from various high-quality materials, such as leather, aluminum, and wood. The various models in the Swiss Kubik collection are powered by renowned Swiss-made motors, which wind any brand or type of automatic watch safely, efficiently, and quietly. Swiss Kubik offers designs capable of winding one or more automatic watches simultaneously, as well as models perfect for the avid collector.

Swiss Kubik watch winders can run for up to three years on a single set of batteries, making these designs easy to take with you on (business) trips or to the office.

Benson Black Series II 8 White watch winder

Posted on 4 December 2025 at 7:37 AM

A high-quality watch winder is the Rolls Royce of watch accessories when it comes to automatic watches. It's the ultimate accessory if you own one or more automatic watches. With a good watch winder, you not only avoid various annoying problems but also choose a safe storage and display option for your automatic watches.

Benson Black Series II 8 White watch winder

A watch winder also winds your watches when you're not wearing them, preventing them from stopping. Stopping an automatic watch can make it less accurate, which is something you, as a true enthusiast, will want to avoid. Furthermore, stopping your automatic watches also means you'll have to reset them. This, too, is highly undesirable. Most watches today have multiple functions, so resetting them is time-consuming.

Manually winding an automatic watch is possible, but not recommended. This requires opening the watch's crown. This is a very delicate part of the watch, so you won't want to do it too often. Moreover, because it requires great care, it's a time-consuming task. In short, a good watch winder is a must-have if you own one or more automatic watches. When looking for a suitable watch winder, it's important to consider its capacity. There are models available for winding a single automatic watch, but also designs with room for an entire collection, and everything in between.

There's also a choice of watch accessories equipped with high-end Swiss-made motors and models with high-quality Japanese motors. In this article, we'd like to tell you more about a brand in the watch accessories industry known for its excellent price-to-quality ratio. Moreover, this brand offers a very extensive and diverse range in various areas. We're talking about the interesting Dutch brand Benson, which has already pleasantly surprised many enthusiasts and collectors. The Benson collection includes models with diverse capacities and designs, featuring both Japanese and Swiss-made engines. The collection also includes both simpler designs and highly luxurious models. Virtually every enthusiast and collector will find something to their liking in this appealing brand's collection.

A beautiful example of a Benson design with ample capacity and an extremely luxurious character is the Benson Black Series II 8 White watch winder. This watch accessory is suitable for winding up to eight automatic watches simultaneously. However, this model also offers a nice extra: convenient storage space for an additional six watches or other jewelry. The watch winder is handmade from wood. The exterior of this model is white, while the interior is black, creating a beautiful contrast. The watch winder can be closed at the front with a luxurious glass door. The top of this model features a special soft-close lid. The Benson Black Series II 8 White watch winder is easily adjusted using the state-of-the-art touchscreen. You can adjust the direction of rotation and the number of turns per day for each watch individually, for optimal winding. The touchscreen is energy-efficient, switching off automatically when not in use. When you need the touchscreen again, simply touch it.

The Benson Black Series II 8 White is powered by high-quality Japanese motors, known for their reliability and quiet operation. Because these motors eliminate annoying noises during the winding process, the Benson Black Series II 8 White is also perfectly suited for use in an office or bedroom, for example. Furthermore, this design features a safe start/stop system. This ensures that the motors automatically switch off when the door is opened, preventing unnecessary damage to the motors.

The Benson Black Series II 8 White also offers CW, CC, and Alt programs, as well as overwind protection. This model also features a USB connection and a convenient power-winding function. This latter feature allows you to wind your watches in a shorter timeframe, ideal when you're short on time. The Benson Black Series II 8 White also comes with a remote control for optimal user comfort.

The Benson Black Series II 8 White watch winder can be viewed and ordered in our webshop. This model includes a manual, certificate, adapter, remote control, and a two-year warranty.
