Looking for one of these @ retail, happy to wait a while, going to talk to some different AD's.

I've been seen quite a few of them listed around the $17.5K mark. So that's pretty much retail plus tax. I would agree you should be able to get that one at an AD pretty quickly.

So, JLC in my mind just won Watches and Wonders, and not many people in the world will care. This thing is incredible.

Anybody have any knowledge of watch winders? My lady just came across this Wolf unit, I still need to figure out the key situation but got it working yesterday. Seems pretty crazy with the way you can program it and stuff...

Yes, Wolf are good units. Have one of their 3 winders. I only use mine for watches with more complicated movements that have pushers, etc. I personally don't want my whole collection wearing out parts if the watch is easy to set in 10-20 seconds.

Definitely, I never understood people that have perpetual calendar watches not on winders, the whole point is to not have to adjust for month and year ends, etc. That level of complication is all I would use it for, as you stated, you wouldn't have all your vehicles idling 24/7 wearing out bearings and lubricant.

As McKay stated, Wolf are decent winders, and yes, the number of rotations and directions of rotation can be very important to certain watches. Patek's and their unidirectional rotors as an example.

Makes total sense, I will just tell her to throw it on eBay and see if anyone bites on it. I was surprised by the retail on the thing... Thanks guys!
