Watch Winder recommendations?
Any watch winder recommendations for a ROC? I have Orbita Spartas for my 2 Rolexs. I'm not too concerned with case or looks, since I'll probably put it inside a drawer or safe. Just want to get a good 2nd home for my baby. While I'd spend $$$ if it's really worth it for the longevity of the watch (since I sometimes don't get to wear it for a several day stretch), I'd rather not break the bank too badly.Thanks in advance.

Cool Jan!!
hi guysAs we're getting more 5167 owners among us I thought it would be useful with a few snaps showing how easy it is to resize the strap - no need to get an AD to do this for youhere's what you need5167 - no need to remove the strap from the headScissors - must be very sharp to get an even cut between the slotsSpringbar toolpicture of the toolssteps1. remove buckle from the strap ends2. cut one slot from each side3. fit buckle back on - this I found important as it gives a good indication of how many slots need to be cut off. if you're sure about the fit you can of course cut off more than one but better to play it safe*4. repeat step two and three until you get a fit where you can stick a couple of fingers between the buckle and your wrist*. BUT bear in mind to leave slots on the 12 o'clock side so you balance the watch*DO NOT cut too many slots as you need to cater for fat wrists in the summer. cutting too many slots and you're likely to have to fork out $250 on a new strap if you

New year thoughts
Happy New Year to all!I was just reflecting on the year gone by when I looked at my profile on this forum. I joined in 2012 when I bought my first proper watch which happened to be a Rolex 116520 white dial. I then reflected on how many watches have been through my ownership since then and I found myself very surprised at the number of them and it's only been 5 years. Some years have been quite dormant but these last two years I admit I've been through a few.Does anyone care to share any similar experiences? I've always bought with the intention to keep but since 2015 only one has remained constant and that is the 79220N which I nearly sold but changed my mind at the last minute and asked for it back from the dealer.The list of watches I have had which I can remember are listed below but not necessarily in chronological order! And of those I still have a few.Daytona 116520 white x 2Daytona 116509 black wg Speedmaster DSOTMDatejust II silver / Arabic 116610LV x 215300st blueBroad arrow
