First of all, thank you Massdrop for this. Received it yesterday nicely packed and spankin' new. Great little single winder for those who don't have a large collection. Everything was nicely packaged and the unit looks stylish, minimalist and most important of all, functional. The motor is very very quiet. So much so when I plugged it in for the first time as I was trying (I'll get back to this later) to fit my watch onto the supplied cuff I only realized it was on and turning was when I was putting the cuff back into the winder. For that, I'm very impressed. Now getting back to the cuff... It's too dang large to wrap my beloved Seiko SARB033 around! No matter how much I compress the cuff, the SS bracelet will not fit around it. I can try to really force it but I fear I'd put too much pressure on the links and end up damaging the bracelet! I can fit it with the bracelet unbuckled of course but then the cuff won't fit properly into the winder (too long for the winder depth). So guys with smaller wrists, just take note of this before joining the next drop. For those using only leather straps, great news, a total non-issue! But for us bracelet lovers with smaller wrist sizes, we're out of luck! Two solutions for this, unstitch the cuff and take some of the stuffing out (probably voiding warranty). Or order the smaller cuff from Wolf (they only have black or grey so if you're like me and bought the blue, sorry it ain't gonna match). Buying from Wolf direct for me is a definite no 'cause cheapest shipping to Australia ends up being $74 for a $15 accessory. Ain't gonna happen. Did manage to find a WOLF dealer here but not sure if they're still in business due to their website being a little umm... dated. Time will tell I guess 'cause I ordered a small cuff in black from them. Hopefully it'll arrive and I can finally use this little unit! Overall, great winder for those with large wrist sizes and non-SS bracelet users.
Update (6/6): Happy to report that I've received the small cuff and the watch is now happily turning in the winder. Happy Horologist here. For those who are situated in Aus., here's the link if you need a small cuff: https://bigwatchworld.com/wolf
