The Breitling Watch Source Forums :: View topic - North American supplier for Rapport

I wouldn't say you've lost your mind Roff, but I personally didn't have a particularly great experience with Rapport. I had a twin unit for a while and it got very noisy after a few months. Eventually it stopped altogether. As it was under warranty it went back for repairs, and came back all nice and quiet again. But a couple of months later it was back to it's old noisy self. I sold it pretty soon after.

As I've said on here before, in my personal experience, Official Time have been easily equal to Rapport in terms of build quality, much better than Rapport in terms of long-term quietness, and they absolutely murder them on price. Yes they have chinese motors, but mine has been great.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a reliable place in North America to buy Rapport watch winders? I need some more rotator capacity and want to try these out after a couple of recommendations. There are a few places online, but I don't have any experience with any of them, and I can get them from Blowers in the UK, but that works out a little more expensive, so hoping someone has some experience with a supplier. Additionally, if anyone thinks I have lost my mind looking at Rapport I'd like that feedback too

I was looking at something a little larger than Official Time offer, but maybe more than one might be in order. Eilux is also a possibility, but no where I can get those.
