Eilux watch winders

Anyone have experience with Eilux watch winders? Might soon become a "necessity" as I've begun the journey down the slippery slope of automatic watches...

Great bang for the buck. I had a single and now have a double. Super quiet and many settings to choose from (CW, CCW, etc). Runs on C or D batteries and lasts about 6-8 months plus. Only thing I am not that crazy about is the TPD is factory pre-set at around 900, so that setting can not be adjusted. Modern automatic movements have a clutch mechanism, so they can't be over-wound.

By the way, where in PA are you located? I livein Blue Bell, which is about 30 minutes west of center city Philly.
