From the looks of the one you linked to, it looks similiar to the first winder I ever had. I didn't like the method the winder used to hold the watches into the winder, as they are just little cushions like the ones that come in the watch box. They are not adequate for holding a heavy watch like the Seamaster securely in the winder. The cusion worked itself loose from it's seat in the winder when my watch was on it and the face of the watch was rubbing against the glass. By the time I discovered this, the bezel had already been marked. I suggest you find one with a secure, spring loaded watch holder, that is all I will use now and it's much more secure, never had a problem. Again, the one I had trouble with wasn't from Brookstone, it just looks like this one uses the same method for holding the watches in as far as I can tell from the picture.
