I have seen pictures of this clock and it looks very nice. I don't
have any experience with wind-up chess clocks at all and was
hoping to get some info.

Specifically I want to know how the time is set. For example you have
a 45 min game or you have a 1:30 game. Can the clock's small
hand be set independantly of the large, or is it like a regular clock
where you have to wind through many revolutions of the large
hand to get the small hand set to a particular location?

Yes, it is like a regular mechanical clock. [I suppose the "Rolland"
clock
you mention, is indeed a mechanical clock!]

How would it work if I wanted to play several 45 minute games in a
row, or even a few hour games?

You would probably set both clocks at a quarter past five and the flag
would drop at six o'clock.

I want to know how the start and
stop times are set. I guess I really want to know if I will be
winding like crazy or what.

If you don't want to turn the time backward but only forward, you
could start a long session of 45 minute games by setting the clocks
at 12.15, then 1.15, 2.15 etc., until 10.15; the small hand would never
be in the time trouble zone (if that would be a problem somehow).
