How to choose your automatic watch winder?

To ensure the proper functioning of your automatic watch, a watch winder is essential. This accessory not only preserves the longevity of your timepiece but also serves as a decorative element in its own right. However, with the variety of models available on the market, making the right choice can be challenging. Discover the criteria to consider in order to find the winder that perfectly meets your needs.

Storage capacity

One of the first factors to consider when purchasing your automatic watch winder is its storage capacity. SwissKubik's Startbox winders come with a single compartment, making them ideal for those who own just one or two watches. You can easily alternate between the two: when one is on your wrist, the other is kept in motion within the winder. Additionally, the compact and elegant design of the Startbox makes it easy to incorporate into your home, whether on a bedside table, in a wardrobe, or in a safe.

The Masterbox winders are aimed more at collectors. Depending on the model, they can accommodate up to 12 watches, allowing you not only to maintain the movement of each one but also to display them elegantly.

The different features

To choose the right watch winder, you should also consider its features. The Startbox winders are configured to perform 1,600 rotations per day, making them suitable for most models available on the market.

The Masterbox winders, on the other hand, offer more customisation options. You can set the direction of rotation and the number of turns via a Bluetooth-connected app. Each model in your collection can thus benefit from a tailored solution that perfectly meets its needs. Whether you want to keep your watch precisely on time or simply lubricate its mechanics with a few turns per day, the Masterbox will meet all your requirements.

Battery life

The power source is also an important criterion to consider. Since they operate on batteries, both the Startbox and Masterbox models offer great flexibility in usage: you can place them wherever you like, without needing a nearby power outlet. This allows you to easily store them in a safe when you're away. As for the Travelbox, it runs on batteries and can guarantee up to six months of autonomy on a full charge.

Design

Beyond their functionality, SwissKubik automatic watch winders also add an aesthetic touch. They come in a variety of materials and colours, allowing you to find one that perfectly fits your interior. For a timeless touch, opt for wenge wood. If you're looking for a more contemporary style, consider carbon fibre or aluminium. The Soft Touch finish is particularly appealing for its soft texture and subtle elegance.

Whichever model you choose, SwissKubik automatic watch winders are designed to be both functional and aesthetically pleasing: they are true showcases for your watches.

The type of use

If you plan to use your watch winder primarily at home, we recommend opting for a Startbox or a Masterbox. Both elegant and functional, these models will easily find their place in your home.

On the other hand, if you frequently travel, we advise prioritising a Travelbox case. Specifically designed for transport, it allows you to keep your watches in motion at all times. Lightweight enough for easy carrying, it still provides optimal protection against shocks, whether you're in a car, on a plane, or on a train. Once you arrive at your destination, activate its winding module to keep your watch moving.

Choosing an automatic watch winder requires careful consideration: do not overlook this step. The Startbox, Masterbox, and Travelbox winders from SwissKubik stand out for their quality and aesthetics, meeting all the expectations of watch enthusiasts. Whether you're a passionate collector or a casual user, you'll find a winder that will preserve your watches while adding a touch of elegance to your home and collection.
