I am getting an Apple Watch 4 that is 44mm. I will need a good nightstand holder that will accept the charger. Any good reasonably priced holders available for the 44mm charger?
 
I use this one from Spigen with my 42 and it works with the 44 so says Spigen's website and others on the forum. I have a 44 coming within the next couple of days and can report back once it's been on the charger. They offer a couple of other variations as well which generally seem to be well received. From what I've found, Amazon has the best pricing on them vs. going direct. I will say this however, regarding phone cases. Sometimes when a new phone is released and the dimensions of the phone change, Spigen will always have the case that genuinely matches the specific phone model sooner.

Edit: I received the AW 4 today and it works just fine with my charger. At first it did not but what I discovered was the charging puck was not properly seated inside the cutout of the charger. Once I discovered and corrected that, it works perfectly.

If you have an access to a 3D printer there are about bajillion designs up on Thingiverse.

I actually need to print one later today as I just switched to a 3rd party sport loop (from the Nike band) and like it, and it is a bit awkward to charge a looped watch without some sort of stand.
 
I have the Orzly & Elevation Labs stands. They were both about $9.

Orzly has a wider, sturdier base. I expected the logo to stand out but on my black one, you can't see it.

EL is more compact.

I think they both have sticky undersides to stick to your bedside table or whatever.
 
On further thought, with my 44mm S4:

I think for daily home use, the Orzly would be better than Elevation Lab. Sturdier base, and the lip underneath supports the watch so it doesn't go lopsided. Just looks a bit better.

Maybe EL for travel since it's smaller. It works just fine too.
 
Here's a comparison with Elevation Lab (blue) on the right & Orzly (black) on the left. Both are about $9 on Amazon.

I think for daily home use, the Orzly would be better than Elevation Lab. Sturdier base, and the lip underneath supports the watch so it doesn't go lopsided. Just looks a bit better.

Otherwise, they're pretty much the same.
