Heiden Monaco Watch Winder - Automatic Watch Winder for Automatic Watches, Rolex - Black Leather - Battery Powered or AC Adapter, 12 Program Settings, Diamond Stitched Vegan Leather

I was having difficulty deciding between the single and double watch version of this winder. One of the reviewers commented, “it does not rotate the watches enough to keep time”. There were plenty of other glowing reviews, but decided to get the single in case it really doesn’t rotate enough. The instructions come with a chart of various watch brands, how many rotations per day, and which direction, (clockwise, counter clockwise, or both directions) is recommended. The winder has 4 turning modes, 650, 950, 1250, and 1850 turns per day, and the three direction options I listed. For Rolex the chart recommends between 650 to 800 turns per day in both directions. I put my 2006 GMT Master 2 on the winder, set at 950 turns per day in both directions. After two days I took the watch off the winder and set it on a flat surface. The watch finally stopped at a little over 44 hours. I manually wound it 30 turns, set the time and, put it back on the winder; lowering the setting to 650 turns per day, and repeated the experiment. The results were identical. This winder has zero issue keeping watches wound, at least Rolexes. It’s aesthetically pleasing, one of the nicer looking winders in my opinion. It’s very quiet, appears to be quite well made, and has real glass instead of plastic for the front panel. My only regret is not getting the double watch version. If there are any significant changes in the future I’ll amend my review.

I wad attracted by the Heiden Monoco’s choice of four turns-per-day settings ranging from 650 to 1850 TPD. Most inexpensive winders operate at a very high 2880 TPD, which can harm a watch over time, while the more expensive brand offers only one 900 TPD setting. For my Omega Seamaster 2500, I set the winder at 650 TPD, turning both clockwise and counter-clockwise, land after 6 days my watch is still keeping perfect time. And the winder runs whisper-quiet. I don’t hear it at all. I also like the fact that the winder holds my watch face vertically and always returns to the starting upright position when stopped. It has a convenient power on-off button, comes with an AC power cord and can also run on D batteries (but winders devour batteries very quickly). The slightly oblong watch pillow will hold either a regular-size or a large watch. The padded winder case is reasonably attractive, but—one slight quibble—I wish the hinged cover opened a little wider. I am extremely happy with this Heiden watch winder and think it offers great value at its price point.

One of my watches, a Concord, needs no battery because it gets wound with wrist movement - but I only wear this watch occasionally and it runs down if not worn. It's a pain to reset the time and date, so I was looking for a reliable winder and checked out numerous options at Amazon, settling on the Heiden Monaco Single Watch Winder. The black leather box-shape case is handsome. There is choice between AC electric plug-in power, or 2 D batteries - and I chose option 2 and stored the cord. The Monaco operates very quietly, I can only hear it if I get very close and there's no noise from elsewhere. It's cool to watch the winder in operation, turning the watch in circles, in both directions. I can see it sitting there in the corner of my computer hutch, doing its thing. Not the cheapest option, but a solid investment.

Really good watch winder compared to others that are on the market. Has a classy look and is extremely quiet

I purchased this for my husband and he has no complaints. It is very stylish and keeps his watch perfectly timed.

Very attractive watch winder. Multi function to suit your watch. Takes the worry out of not wearing your watch.

Broke after just a couple of years. Neither the batteries or wall outlet can get this device to wind anymore. Such a short life for an overpriced product.

This watch winder is very premium and stylish, and it looks great on my dresser. But the motor is audible from across the room when it's running. My older, cheaper watch winder is much quieter - I need to put my ear right next to it to hear it operating. So the noise coming from the Heiden is especially disappointing. I followed up with the manufacturer and they sent me a replacement under warranty. Unfortunately the new one is just as loud. Too bad, I expected more.
