Hey guys

In prep of buying the Apple Watch on Friday I've just bought a night charging stand

Nice, it looks like a better version of the elevation labs stand. That really misses the bottom block that supports the watch.
I've just got this for my Apple Watch and it's not bad at all for the price. Only slightly strange thing is that it has double sided tape on the bottom so you either peel it off and stick it to your beside table (which I'm not doing as its solid wood and will ruin it!) or it's a little slippery with the tape left on?

The elevation labs stand has micro suction tape on the bottom, that's a lot better.

Bought the Spigen some weeks ago, and happy with it. It is worth bearing in mind that with the Spigen and similar stands the speaker will be somewhat covered, perhaps impacting on the alarm volume.

I've read through some, not all, of these posts and I am looking for a do it all in one stand that will hold and charge or have nice cord capability to charge:

ipad air 2
Apple watch
6s+

All I see on Amazon are the bamboo variety and while nice, not sure I want that look.

Is there a consensus favorite here among the group?

Yeah, I'm interested in that one, keeps it low profile for my desk.

Someone should make the same design (assuming it's the one where it sits on the side), but put an opening with a little acoustic chamber to +amplify+ the speaker a bit :)

We ended our earlier kickstarter project early as we realized we were over optimistic of our funding goal. So we took the previous dock, improved on it and reduced the price.
The dock is still Fully CNC machined from billet aluminum. Adjustable and removable charging head in 4 color choices( for now),if we reach our funding goal, we will offer 4 additional choices.

First 50 (37 still available as of this posting) are $29 + $6/US $12/international shipping.
After that, the price is $35 + shipping

We feel that considering they are solid aluminum, the price is very good.

If these prove successful, we have plans to offer more docks for other products.

Definitely the Premium One w3. It's a beautiful stand that holds all 3 of your Apple devices. If you also want nightstand mode, this is not the one though. While you can dock your watch in landscape, there is a possibility of it dropping during the night, and it will definitely come off if you remove your phone. But in the "normal" watch position, it's perfect.

Wow that is a beautiful stand! Pricey but easily the best I've seen so far that handles all 3 devices.

Thank you for this

I keep meaning to post pics of my Premium One w3. It really is a beautiful dock/stand. Docking my phone and iPad mini seemed a little fiddly at first, but I'm getting used to it.

Just ordered this. Looks like a nice design, not sure how good the finish will be. It looks 3D printed.

Ridiculously easy to buy through Etsy with Apple Pay.

The black is pretty! The Premium One was worth the money.

I was a little worried I'd made the wrong color choice after seeing how nice your silver one looks! I went with black because it goes better on my nightstand, even though all of my Apple products are silver. I'm really happy with the black, though.

It's definitely worth the money!
