If, like us here at The Coolector, you’re serious about your watches and have a decent collection to speak of, investing in a top-quality watch winder is a real no-brainer. That’s where excellent brands like Barrington come in with their top notch selection of wares to suit any budget or collection size. The Barrington Watch Winder journey began in 2009, spearheaded by founder Sean O’Farrell. Before launching Barrington, Sean had been involved with Jura Watches, the UK’s first online authorised dealer of luxury watches, where he played a pivotal role as a seed investor and director starting in 2007.
During his time at Jura, Sean led an initiative to create a high-quality watch winder for the brand. This endeavour proved so successful that it evolved into the creation of a standalone company dedicated to the development and production of premium watch winders, ultimately giving birth to Barrington Watch Winders. And the rest, as they say, is history. If you’re in the market for a high-quality watch winder for your luxury watch, Barrington definitely gets our vote here at Coolector HQ.
A watch winder is designed to keep your automatic watch running smoothly when it’s not on your wrist. The primary advantage is convenience, ensuring your timepiece is always set with the correct time and date whenever you’re ready to wear it. Watch winders go by various names, including watch spinner, watch rocker, watch rotator, watch turner, automatic watch shaker, and watch winder box.
Boasting an array of winders to choose from – whether it be their flagship product, the Single Watch Winder, all the way up to their behemoth, the 12 Watch Winder Safe – the quality of the products from Barrington really is second to none and it’s not hard to see why they have established themselves as one of the UK’s most popular brands in horological circles. Priced at £225, their Single Watch Winders are great value for money and will be an excellent gift for any man serious about his timepieces.
One of our favourite products from Barrington is their stunning 6-Watch Winder which looks like the sort of gear that James Bond would have residing in his home to keep his selection of high-quality timepieces running to perfection. This impressive bit of kit has six individually programmable rotors set in a display cabinet with carbon-fibre styling and comes with a full-function remote control.
Exceptionally refined and luxurious, it’s hard not to be impressed with the aesthetics of the watch winders from Barrington and whether you’re after something striking like their Electric Yellow Winder or a touch more understated like their Special Edition Grey Koto offering, there really is something for every watch aficionado upon Barrington’s digital shelves.
