Because Benson is a fairly new brand they’ve come in at a reasonable retail price of 659 euros, or $1195 cad.īenson also makes a selection of smaller and larger winders, all available in different colors and finishes. It checks all the boxes in terms of style, quality and functionality, and even gives extra with the upper storage and modern control features. If you’re in the market for a 4 watch winder this unit should definitely be one to consider. This is something you’ll appreciate if your taste in watches goes. A high BPH can also increase the reliability of an automatic watch. The smooth movement is more pronounced if you pick an automatic watch with high beats per second (BPH). You can choose to have some winders moving while some are stopped and each individual winder compartment can be programmed to have its own settings. To add to the stunning aesthetics, these watches boast a smooth and suave hand movement. Simply tap buttons 1, 2, 3, and 4, choose whether you’d like uni-direction or bi-directional movement. Working the winder is straight forward, the LCD display was logical enough that I didn’t need to read the instructions to operate it. You should be able to place this in a bedroom with no audible noise whatsoever.

When the winder is turned on and moving it’s very quiet even with the front window open. Everything has a nice smooth action to it, it’s quiet and easy to operate. The hinges, latches, and buttons are all very solid as well. The finish of the exterior is very glossy and almost mirror like, it can collect fingerprints quite easily but this is quickly remedied with the wipe of a microfiber cloth.

It has a nice heft to it making it feel substantial, it sits very stable on-top of a table or wherever you decide to place it. The overall feeling and quality of this winder is exceptional. The upper storage compartment is also where you will find the main controls for the winders, which are displayed on a modern looking touch screen. The upper area is also large enough to store a couple extras if needed, like rings or small pieces of jewelry. This little upper compartment is an excellent idea, you can store hand-wind watches or quartz watches here that don’t require an automatic motion. The top of the winder has a very handy storage compartment for 3 watches, this is just a basic storage area as the compartments don’t wind like the front. The Benson logo is stamped at the top of the door in small font. The front also has a closing door with a window, this can either be left open or clicked closed. The watches can be placed inside and are easily visible as they rotate. The front of the winder displays the 4 winder compartments.
