MOZSLY Watch Winder Review – Orange, Carbon Black

– [Adam] Today, I’ve got two Mozsly watch winders
to take a quick look at.
They stand out with their 
bold colors, and look great,
but how well do they work,
can you damage your watch,
and do you need one for your automatic watch?
The key things to know about 
the Mozsly watch winder
is that first, you have proper recognized settings
for the turns per day,
650, 900, 1200, or 1500 tpd.
Cheaper winders often don’t tell you this,
or instead they give you cryptic clues.
The four speed settings,
together with the three direction settings
of either clockwise, 
anti-clockwise or bidirectional,
should cover most watches,
giving you some extra value.
Next, there’s no way I can imagine
that your watch could get damaged in here.
There’s nothing at the back down here
that could move or catch on your watch buckle.
And, the rear-facing surface is felt-lined.
It’s a safe, plastic bucket type of recess
for the watch to sit inside of.
And, the window at the 
front, I believe is acrylic.
So, even if you were really careless
and didn’t push your watch deep enough
into the recess, and it made 
contact with the window,
it would

be really difficult for this soft acrylic
to cause any damage to a sapphire
or mineral watch crystal.
It comes with two pillows
to accommodate larger or smaller watches.
The general consensus on watch forums
is that it’s healthier for your watch movement
to power down occasionally.
This prevents wear.
So, if I don’t intend using a particular watch
for any extended period of time,
then I do prefer to let it power down.
But I still use a watch winder frequently
when it suits me.
If you have a watch with 
multiple complications to set,
or with a particularly low power reserve,
then of course,
a watch winder is even more beneficial.
I’ve heard some people say that very cheap
watch winders could magnetize a watch.
So I avoided those obvious white-label offerings.
My Mozsly was a good mid-level purchase,
that I was happy to pay a little more for.
Plus, I took the time to ask,
and Mozsly reassured me that my watch
can’t be magnetized by their product.
They describe it as an anti-magnetization design.
In operation, it’s the most quiet watch winder
that I’ve purchased, in fact,
mine lives next to where I sleep,
but I just don’t hear it unless I’m very close
and deliberately paying attention.
It uses a Japanese MABUCHI motor.
They’re the world’s largest manufacturer by volume
of small electric motors, so says the internet.
For disclosure, I purchased 
the orange Mozsly winder
a few weeks ago.
And, the black one was sent 
to me for free by Mozsly,
which is why you saw the sponsored pop-up notice
at the start of the video.
There are other colors you can check out too.
There’s links to the products
in the video description below.
If you use the link and make a purchase
I can earn a small fee at no extra cost to you.
By the way,
ignore that I have a three-pin UK adaptor here,
yours will be country-specific.
Also, I mentioned, perhaps don’t keep your watch
permanently in a powered watch winder,
but, you can kill the power at the mains,
and now you have a really nice display case
for your favorite watch,
and it’s protected from dust or damage.
So, now that I have two Mozslys,
let’s test the tandem feature.
Each individual unit comes 
with a serial connector.
So if you buy two winders
you’ll have a spare connector.
It’s long enough that you can position the units
next to, or on top of each other.
Oh, you’ll notice
these can be battery powered, alternatively.
A warning, Mozsly instruct never to use
the wired power if you have batteries inserted.
Either use batteries,
or use a mains power supply, not both.
Each winder will work to its own specific
and individual chosen settings,
whether you power it individually,
or use two in tandem.
If you’re wandering will it fit on your shelf,
the depth of the product is product is 15 cm here.
The window protrudes around another 2 1/2cm.
And, you should allow another two cms
for the cables that go into the rear of the unit.
All cables have this a 90-degree angle,
which shows they thought of everything
to give you a good experience.
I’ve got no negatives to convey,
but I’d love it if the window 
opened like a porthole,
with a big external hinge at the bottom or side.
That would just be a little faster
than unscrewing the case.
