How to care for your watch in style and safely

How to care for your watch in style and safely: Winders, luxury safes and cases

When you buy a quality automatic watch, it's not just a fashion accessory - you become the owner of a precision piece of watchmaking. And just as a luxury car deserves a garage, your watch needs proper care and safe storage. Nowadays, there are elegant and clever solutions that combine practicality, protection and aesthetics: automatic watch winders, luxury security safes with integrated modules and designer cases and jewellery boxes.

Automatic watch winders: they keep time moving

Automatic watches work without a battery - they are wound by the movement of the wrist. But if you don't wear it for a long time, the movement stops and needs to be reset. That's where the watchwinder comes in.

This device simulates the movement of the hand and periodically rotates the watch so that it stays wound and ready to wear. Modern winders allow you to adjust the direction and number of turns per day (TPD), which is important for different types of movements. Quality models are quiet, energy-efficient and often very stylish - so they also serve as a design element in your interior.

Luxury safes with integrated winders and jewellery boxes

For those who want to combine security with aesthetics and practicality, there are luxury safes that are designed specifically for watch and jewellery collectors. Brands like Buben & Zorweg have taken the safe concept to a new level - combining certified protection with impeccable design and high-tech features.

These safes often include:

• Integrated watch winders with individual settings
• Special drawers or modules for storing jewellery, documents or other valuables
• LED lighting for better visibility and presentation
• Electronic locks, biometric sensors and silent motorised opening

The advantage of these safes is that they protect not only from thieves, but also from moisture, dust and other damage - while keeping watches moving and jewellery safely stored. This way, the safe is not just a storage device, but also part of everyday comfort.

Cassettes and jewellery boxes: stylish organisation and protection

If a safe is not for you, but you still want to keep your watches safely stored, watch cases and jewellery boxes are the ideal choice. They are available in a variety of sizes and designs - from simple boxes for 2-4 watches to larger display cases for larger collections.

Their main advantages:

• Protects watches from scratches, dust and light
• Allows for clear storage and easy selection when wearing
• Serves as an elegant interior decoration

The cases are usually made of high-quality wood, leather or aluminium, often with a glass lid. The interior is usually lined with soft velvet or microfiber to hold the watch securely in place.

What to choose?

• If you have one or two automatic watches and don't want to set them often, a winder will do.
• If you own multiple watches, jewellery and other valuables, a luxury safe with winders and jewellery boxes is ideal - a combination of security and convenience.
• And if you're looking for an elegant and affordable solution, a watch case is a great way to keep everything neatly and stylishly stored.
