This Wolf watch winder is an impressive piece of furniture in its own right.
Watch winders have been around a while and there are many different grades, styles and qualities. The WOLF Viceroy Triple Winder is a particularly good-looking, top-performing winder that keeps up to three watches wound at a time. There is also space for keeping other timepieces. The winder houses three M2.7 modules that allow the user control over the winding programs of each one individually – complete with start delay and directional settings. What impressed me about this winder:
Looks: It is made of exquisite leather and glass and is the first piece of man furniture that my wife accepts on the dresser.
The triple winder is easy to use and to set.
Mechanics:This thing is quiet — not a peep heard. I have owned a few watch winders over the years and I thought they were quiet, the wolf is inexplicably quiet.
Programming: One look at the pamphlet inside the box and it was easily figured out.
Lights: There are lights that flash on the unit, but because of the cover they are not visible at night. Perfect for a bedroom.
The leather box has space for other timepieces and is super quiet.
Watch cradle: The watches sit in a pillow that clicks into a cradle securely. The watches don’t move a millimeter in all the daily rotations they make. Very secure, and easy to figure out. I would trust it with a $1000 watch or a $10,000 watch.
Space: There is plenty of room for other watches in the box, and it has a lock.
To sum it up: This Viceroy is beautiful, quiet and winds the watches so that all three watches are in perfect sync. Best yet: the price. It retails for about $1,100.
