That looks interesting... It seems like it'd be a little top heavy to me, though. Does it feel pretty sturdy? Is the lightning cable snug enough that you can plop the phone down / unplug it one-handed? Also, do you think the cylidincrical base that the watch sits around would be small enough to accomodate a Link bracelet (closed loop)?

Sorry for all the questions. I'm really interested because this is one of the first docks I've seen that meets all my requirements.

Can you please tell me how easy it is to insert and remove the chargers ?

The chargers are relatively easy to insert and remove. It does arrive in 2 parts - a main body and round smaller part that is inserted into the place that holds the iPhone. It is a tight fit and takes some jiggling to get this smaller piece into place.

When the iPhone is inserted, the base appears to tilt back a bit - doesn't topple over - and when the ⌚️ is placed on it, the alignment corrects itself. The plugs (not included) fit very snug. An iPhone can be inserted one-handed, but it takes two to remove, one hand on the base and one hand removing the iPhone. The base is perfect for any size ⌚️, even one using a link bracelet in closed position. My medium modern buckle up even fits!

It is only a $15 risk to see if this is the right stand for you. I have been searching for just this combination for charging both the iPhone and an ⌚️. I wanted one that would hold my ⌚️ in nightstand mode, while not being obscured by my iPhone. This was the perfect combination for me!

Thanks for the reply, you just sold me on it!

Thanks for the reply, you just sold me on it!

One note: It holds an iPhone w/o a protective case easily. I needed to make a modification to hold my iPhone in its protective case.

NightStand
By Orzly

So far this is the only Night stand dock i can find that fits both the 38 & 42mm watches without using a spacer! Love the soft touch feeling on this one! Let me know what you think!​

Best one i have found yet for the new nightstand mode!

I have this one too and like it very much. It simply works!

Nice review, I've not gotten around to ordering one, but I think this is the one I'll get.

Maybe I am missing something but what is the point of that type of stand versus putting your watch on its side and plugging the charger in?

It seems a stand with more space for other items like a phone or iPad may be more resourceful but that is dependent upon the person I guess. I am just trying to understand what added value a stand like that brings versus just putting the charger on the phone itself and saving the $15-$20.

It stops the cable falling off the table and makes it look neat and tidy. That's really the only reason.

I can understand that, thank you.

I am looking to clean up my mess of multiple bands, my watch, my phone, and my iPad in a tidy spot and the Premium W3 looks promising but just so darn expensive and can't justify that price at this point.

It certainly does that. Also, it is very easy to place my watch on it and lift it off with one hand. Clearly if you want an all-in-one charging station for all your devices, then this isn't it. But for a small watch stand (only) it serves well.

Been looking for a simple stand to use at home. Just ordered this and hopefully it works out!

Save up for the W3. It is so worth it. I've gone from leaving my iPad charging on the sofa in the living at night, my iPhone on the bedside table, and my watch on the dresser, to all 3 together on the bedside table, with no loss of space. And it's a beautiful stand.

I also have the Orzly nightstand stand, that came in a box of colored cases. I immediately stuck in in my suitcase as it will be good for traveling. It's not worth it to only tidy up a single cable.

Eighty bucks for a plank with a hole in it?

Hahahahah
Is that lined with cork or particle board? Looks like cheap crap. If you're gonna sell cheap crap, at least put a bow on it. Then it'll look like a pretty turd, with a bow on it.
Wow what rip! Sorry if I offend anyone but it's just not for me.

 

[Mr. Donahue]

This does look pretty nice. Kinda pricey, but seem to be high quality.

Yeah that's sleek and simple. Pretty cool.

 

[Mr. Donahue]

Anyone?

That's a good a question. It might. I guess if you had one you'd wanna be careful every time but then what's the point? Yeah. Someone should make a rubber or silicone lined one.

 

[Mr. Donahue]

Yeah looking silly is the first thing I think about when going to bed and charging my phone/watch..... what would the neighbors think if my watch band just flopped up in the air?

Well I think he has a great point. Think about it.
If someone is buying a dock for their watch then obviously one of the main reasons is to have it displayed on a stand rather than laying on its side on their nightstand/table. If you're going to display something, wouldn't you want the presentation to look good. I think if the band is floppy and retarded looking would annoy me personally. I think that's what he meant.
He would want some kind of cradle or stand that would present and display every watch model regardless of band type or specifically his band type to look good while it's charging and displayed.

 

[Mr. Donahue]

I'm not expecting it to do much beyond charging my watch. It'd be nice if I could reach over and check the time during the night, but I want somewhere I can quickly slap the watch down to charge and don't want to have to fish the cable out from between the bed and nightstand like I do with my lightning cable every night.

Hahahaha! I hate fishing that lightning cable between my bed and nightstand. I got so tired of it that when my phone isn't charging I just unplug and roll up that charged and put in the drawer of my nightstand and unravel it when I need it.
I don't wanna have to do that with watch.

I have the nomad stand and must say I am very pleased with it, got it on eBay for only $40 so much cheaper than at Best Buy, the seller had bought one and been gifted one so decided to sell it.

 

[billinaz]

only thing i dont like is that the iphone cant stand up straight, but its a decent option....

does anybody have this???? only question would be how would the MILANESE band sit on this? would it fall off if sitting horizontally?

I have one. I will make you a great deal on it! It just takes up too much real estate in the cubby hole I have it in.

We had our iPhones, iPads and watches on our nightstands and almost every night, the cat would gnaw on the cords. Since my spouse likes to do woodworking as a hobby, I am using this for the first time tonight. A base was built underneath for a block for all three charging cables, which leads only to one normal power plug.

That would be cool if you could close it into a smaller display box.

Absolutely gorgeous! I'd say that gives the Premium One a run for its money.
