Post subject: | Eilux vs. Wolf Design Watch winders |
I want to purchase a watch winder for my Breitlings and I wanted your input on these brands of watch winders, Wolf Designs and Eilux. I know Wolf Designs are made in China, and Eilux I believe are made in Japan but wanted to know from anyone who owns any of these winders. The Eilux are a little ore expensive than the Wolf and essentially they have the same features, however the Eilux I am interested in has a curved glass with a lock and key. Also, there were a couple of negative reviews about the Wolf winders on the website i didn't like. If I go with the Eilux, am I making a mistake? Thanks in advance. |

I can't vouch for Eilux, but I have the Wolf module 2.7 and I would not go with any other winder for my use. The Wolf has worked flawlessly for me for quite awhile. The module 2.7 is super quiet. |

Neither I can vouch for Eilux but in the short space of time I have owned the wolf 2.7 I have found it very good for the price. Lots of settings and as OMI says its quite. Only thing that bugs me is the several stickers I found stating, made in china. |

Thanks for your replies, I guess the most important feature on the winder is the motor, and how long it will last, maybe I will stick with Wolf Designs since there isn't much information about Eilux. |

My Wolf winder is going on 3 years now with no problems or noticeable change in performance. |

Are the Wolf winders appropriate for Breitling in terms of the amount of times the should be turned? |

The Wolf 2.7 module is absolutely fine (Thats what I use) and fully programmable for pretty much any automatic watch. Some of the older Wolf Winders are not quite so flexible, so make sure you choose the right model. |
