Here's one more pick for Father’s Day. For the uninitiated, it’s a watch winder. It
keeps your automatic watch running when not worn—an automatic watch will stop if it isn’t worn for over
a day or so, which some people find highly annoying. Most winders are noisy
and expensive. This one is completely silent, about $100 (which is about $200 less than
others), will fit watches of many sizes and has a choice of timers. It is all the rage
amongst my friends who know watches (thank you Paul, for the tip).
$99.95 at The Sharper Image, multiple locations; sharperimage.com.
