Building a watch winder
Re: Building a watch winder
This is quite rightly a very popular choice for thread of the year, such a talented chap!
I am convinced next year it's going to be something awesome like a working model of the back to the future delorean complete with a mr fusion device!
Well done and what an excellent read! I doth my cap to you sir, just incredible!

He's already said he's thinking of building an in-house movement with a twist.

Wow you designed and made that whole thing? That's incredible! I'm in awe of your obvious talent .
Re: Building a watch winder
I saw that you won the Thread of the year but had not seen the thread itself until now.
I'm amazed. That looks awesome and of a very good taste!!
You have great talent, congratulations.
Cheers,
Sifion.

Re: Building a watch winder
When I see stuff like this it it only re-affirms just how un-clever I really am.
Well done indeed, it looks totally amazing.
I think Terminator 2 and Kraftwerk both leapt to mind when I saw it.
Fantastico !!!

Re: Building a watch winder
Thanks all,
The problem is now a majority of my watch collection is sold or up for auction. I'll only have two autos left by next week, a Blancpain and a RGM. The winder will only be half full.
I suppose I'll have to look into getting the Journe Octa Lune and the Lange Dual Time to get it back up to four!

Re: Building a watch winder
Great job! Thank you for sharing. You have inspired me to build my own watch winder as well.
Re: Building a watch winder
Holy cow, saw the thread title and was expecting to find a make shift budget solution of a watch winder that I could copy myself. How wrong I was
Absolute genius! I could only dream of having that sort of talent and resources, well done!
