Here's my new winder my kids got me for Christmas. Carbon Fiber material with red stitching, and the front is plexiglass. Works great so far and holds my watches in place pretty good while winding. Also has a few different settings for clockwise and counter clockwise settings. It's no Orbita or Wolf but because my kids thought of me on Christmas it's priceless to me. ImageImage

I would switch those watches around. With two heads on a (I'm guessing) Chinese motor with plastic gears you need to balance the weight on each head to prevent wear so put watches that are closest to each other in weight together - i.e. the two Navis and the two non Navis together.

Congrats on the gift!

Thanks for the advice. It didn't come with any sort of manual other than operating instructions.
