A system for retaining a wrist watch in a watch winder having a hollow cylindrical turntable, includes a watch winder cuff defining a first circumferential profile, with two push tabs mounted on the cuff for inserting the cuff into the turntable and removing the cuff from the turntable, and one or more extension cuffs of differing length defining a second circumferential profile shaped to match the first circumferential profile, with a connector disposed thereon for engaging and joining the watch winder cuff and a selected extension cuff together. The connector may include a stub disposed on the extension cuff configured to fit snugly inside a depression on the watch winder cuff, or a hollow sleeve extending forwardly from the extension cuff and being configured to fit snugly over the watch winder cuff body to join the watch winder cuff and extension cuff together. The watch winder cuff preferably has an axial length of about one inch and the extension cuff, when joined to the watch winder cuff, preferably increases the axial length to about 2.25 inches to about 2.75 inches, depending on the size of the extension cuff. Both the watch winder cuff and the extension cuffs are made of compressible foam material such that the watch winder cuff and the extension cuffs are axially compressible under hand force.
