The mechanical aspect of a watch winder is only one part of the sophisticated Time Machine system. Another part is the digital connectivity and control of the winder. With the app, you can add winders in sets, you can update your watch collection and you can set the winding cycles that are optimal for your timepiece. The app has a database of 15,000+ watches from which you can select your timepieces and assign them to a winder.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Time Machine Winders at none against Time Machine's 2. Time Machine Winders also leads on ads (none vs shown). Time Machine's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 48 months). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
