I have been watching EBAY and so far the Steinhausen Quad watchwinder looks like it runs about $200. Does anyone have any idea where I can find a cheaper one? Or where I can get a watchwinder that would work but not so expensive?

Overstock carries a few of them - they have a single for $150 (http://www.overstock.com/cgi-bin/d2.cgi?PAGE=PROFRAME&PROD_ID=884183) - put a request in the Overstock thread (http://www.gotapex.com/forums/showthread.php?t=81750) & Mr. Overstock Manager may knock a few more bucks off.

Another thing you might consider (that I've been thinking about also) - there's a watch maker from China called Magico that makes automatic watches, and many of them seem to ship with winder boxes. It doesn't explicitly say so in the description, but I suspect the ones they sell at Overstock may include these (based on this review (http://www.overstock.com/cgi-bin/d2.cgi?PAGE=PROFRAME&PROD_ID=931740)). All of the Magico's (http://www.overstock.com/cgi-bin/d2.cgi?page=search&keyword=magico+watch)at Overstock sell for $199. I have NO idea about the quality of these watches, but if the winder box is included it may be a moot point.

I don't think you'll find a quad any cheaper than 200.

for the input. I didn't even think to look at overstock.com.
