New Winder

[centralcoastbuc]

Just sprung for a Orbita Monaco 3 from the "scratch and dent" collection. Probably the only way I could have experienced one of their great winders. I have a couple of Tech Swiss single winders now, which look ok, but probably not much long term usefulness.

I am looking forward to seeing and the product and trying it out on my 3 babies. They will likely sleep so nice from now on.

The information on this forum was very useful.

Congratulations the Monaco series is a beautiful 3 head winder.Welcome to the forum and can't wait to see what 3 babies get the new penthouse.

Well I am not so good with pics. I only have a Blackberry. Here is my Monaco with my GS 9S55, Swiss Army ambassador and Seiko Premier spinning away. I am very happy with the quality of the unit and my watches are running very well in there. The first 5 days including 24 hrs of wearing and the rest in the winder, the GS only gained 2 seconds.

I also picked up a Sparta single to try it out. My Accutron Astronaut LE is swinging away.

I am pretty sold on winders in general and on Orbita for sure.

Gorgeous! BTW, I have that same Seiko and did a review on it.

Your review is what prompted me to pick one up while you still could find new ones. It wasn't getting much wrist time due to the very dressy look, so I changed the bracelet to a black strap with a deployment buckle tonight to tone it down a little.

You'll have to post some photos in the Japanese and Asian Forum - I'd be interested in seeing what it looks like!
