I am looking for a new watch box made from wood for 6-8 watches, handmade if possible since I like the rugged look. And I also like the idet of supporting small local cratfsmen. I have come across several but any of you have favourties? Pics would be greatly appreciated

 

My wife had this made by a local guy..... mounts flush to the wall (very solidly) and holds 15 of my favorites.

 

I've been thinking about a steel and (thick) glass coffee table for the living room that would double as a display case..

Something I could lock, would resist a hammer and that I could bolt to the floor..

I don't think I could get away with that for the wife, but I like the idea

Great thanks!! There are some really awesome ones there.

 

I built a couple of shelves to put them In my gunsafe. I would like to put them on the WALL but the safe is . . . Well . . . Safer

 

You can usually find such things on etsy.com, I like that the site connects you directly to the craftsman/woman. Many are willing to do custom pieces if you have something special in mind. Here's an example I pulled up quickly:

It's expensive, but you can find boxes at all price points on the site.

I don't love this box, but the builder seems to include secret compartments in some of his boxes, could be helpful for hiding recent acquisitions from the wife until I find the right time to come clean

I find all sorts of stuff on etsy, I bought a watch roll there too a while back.

 

Coffee table watch box! That would be awesome indeed!

 

I didn't know etsy so thanks ( wife knows it though and buys all sorts of things there) A lot of nice things there. Found several who hand craft watch boxes. I ended up buying an old cigar case on Ebay though for $5, so now I have a little project going turning it intro a watch box. I am not much of a handyman, so it will probably end up looking like shit

 

Had this box that came with a really good bottle of tequila... A visit to the hardware store and a few hours and later and I had a watch box.. Not the fanciest but, it works...

And a repurposed cigar humidor, it's at a 30 degree slant and perfect for a display case.
