I have a lot of watches and have been using winders for years. Up until a few years ago they were only made in Europe and those can be very expensive.  I needed a two watch winder to put in a safe and I wanted something compact and that would wind in both directions.  This well made unit fits the bill nicely. It can be placed horizontally or vertically and opens from the front so it can sit on a shelf without needing any overhead clearance for a lid. The blue LED lights look nice but the important feature is that there are four modes for winding, two of which are bidirectional.  The holders themselves are easy to use and include adapters for larger watches. The case is black and wrapped in leatherette - nothing fancy - but it performs well and the blue lights make it look very nice. I've seen several other winders in this price range and none have better features or build quality. This is an excellent value and I recommend it as a "best buy" for the price range.
