I've just bought a Tag Grand Carrera, it's going to be a special occasion/not for work type watch so on't be wearing it enough during the week to keep it ticking over.

So I was thinking about getting a watch winder to keep it in tip top condition and ready to wear, has anyone got any recomendations as to what to get etc

Cheers smile

Which Grand Carrera did you get out of interest?? I have always had a soft spot for the 17RS.

As for the winder - to do the watch justice, have a look at a Rapport winder. These are top quality and of course you will pay extra for it, but it is worth it.

There are hundreds on the market to choose from and I am sure that there will be others suggested, but to start you off.

Although, saying that, have just remembered that chronomaster.co.uk have some Sinn winders (seriously good German brand) which might be worth checking out as well.
