Our review
The Mcbazel Double Watch Winder holds and turns two automatic watches in a black PU leather case with adjustable pillows. It keeps both watches wound and running between wears. A winder only helps automatics, and many owners get by without one. The catch is that it does nothing for quartz or solar watches, and a synthetic finish limits how premium it feels.
What it is
This is Mcbazel's two-watch winder. It has two pillows, each with its own rotating mount, inside a black PU leather box. PU is a synthetic leather-look finish, so the material is cleaner and cheaper than hide but is not the same. The lid is normally clear, so you can see the watches on display.
It sits in the budget range of winders, and suits someone with a small group of automatics.
How it works
Inside a mechanical automatic is a rotor that swings with your arm movement and winds the mainspring. A winder simulates that movement by turning the watch slowly. Most boxes offer a choice of turns per day and rotation direction, so you can match a watch's needs. The listing should state the settings, the power source and whether the two sides work independently.
The motor runs on a plug-in adaptor or batteries, depending on the version, so confirm what your home supports before buying.
Using it day to day
Set each pillow so the watch sits snug, secure the strap or bracelet away from the mechanism and choose a setting. Because the two stations may share a setting, it is worth checking whether they can be set separately, since different watches have different needs. Most automatics, however, are tolerant of a general setting.
Check the pillow size against your biggest watch. Bulky divers and chronographs sometimes crowd the lid, so measure before buying. Modern automatics can be damaged by magnetism, so keep the box away from things such as speakers.
Against the alternatives
Within the catalogue, the Songmics Double Watch Winder and the Kalawen Double Watch Winder are two direct rivals, and the Mcbazel Single Watch Winder is the single-watch version. If you want storage as well as winding, a watch box such as the Songmics 6-Slot Watch Box holds more watches but does not turn them.
A double winder makes sense only if you own two automatics that you cannot wear regularly. For one watch, a single winder costs less and takes less room.
Who it's for, and who should skip it
It suits someone who rotates two automatics and does not like resetting the time and date every time. It also suits a collector who wants a neat display on a shelf.
Skip it if you wear your automatic every day, because wearing it keeps it wound. Skip it if you own quartz, solar or digital watches, which never need winding. The honest drawback is that a winder is a convenience, not a necessity, and a budget unit can be audible in a quiet room.

Who shouldn't buy this
Don't buy it if you wear your automatic every day: wearing it keeps it wound.
