12-Slots Watch Winder with 6 Free Storages, Carbon Fibre Shell with High-Gloss Lacquer, JINS&VICO

I reworked my closet shelving just for this winder and I love it. It looks great and works great (so far). I've had some kind of cheap watch winders, by watch winder standards, and they each (3) quit working after a few months. This winder is working great so far for 6 months. If it fails, I will update this review.

It looks great and has great options. Being able to change the revolutions per each pair is a great feature. I keep all mine on the lowest 650 setting, but it's great to be able to adjust it for troubleshooting watches or if the watch movement requires more. The light is a bit cheesy as it only really luminates the top row, I just leave it off.

The only negative about this winder is that you will be compelled to fill it up!

Only had the watch winder cabinets for a few days. So far, so good. A beautiful piece and reasonably priced. Keeps all of my automatics wound to perfection and ample storage for my Ecodrives up top.

Pros: Looks nice, fairly compact, pretty quiet, not too expensive.

Cons: I know it will get louder, customer service is spotty at best, “piano black” finish shows the woodgrain through the paint, $700 is too high for this quality.

Long: I’ve bought several of these Chinese winders over the years under various brands. It seems that they’re all being made by 1 or 2 larger factories, which then set up smaller brands to sell winders for a year or two before they disappear (along with any long lasting customer service.) You can tell because all the different models under the different brands use the exact same sets of controls and instruction manuals.

For a 12-watch winder, it does a decent job. The lowest setting is 650tpd including a 12 hour rest period. I think it is closer to 700, but it won’t kill your watches.

But there are only SIX MOTORS. This is stated in the product description, but needs to be emphasized. The Jins&Vico 8-watch model has 8 separate motors that can be individually controlled. For some reason, the 12-watch model only has 6 motors, each contolling 2 winders. So if you have some watches that need a weird setting, you’d better have 2, otherwise you’ll waste a winding spot.

There is no glass. It’s all lacquered wood and plastic panels. The fit and finish are OK, but not up to the level of some of the higher-end brands.

The motors are quiet out of the box, but they will get louder after being used for a few months. They always do. And by that point, the company you purchased it from will probably be gone and operating under some new name.

Bought two of them. Great value, quiet and fits all size watches. Wonderful winder.
