    Great work. What an amazing change of color. Now look as new. Work with old wood is now as easy as it looks

    Hi everyone- I found this thread recently and there are some great posts that’s I’ve skimmed through...

    I am after a wall mounted display case for anywhere between 6 to 12 watches....

    Anyone have any recommendations?

    Photos for inspiration...

    I've been debating which route to go on a box? WOLF, a Legendary Moonwatch box to convert... a nice decision to make during these times of home living...

    I have ended up hitting the button on the Watch Box 10 from www.lifeofrileyonline.co.uk (please remove if links are not appropriate).

    Currently it's in a sale with an additional 15% off using SPRING15 so ~£170, not the cheapest nor a dizzy price tag and its just slightly different to other options out there...

    I don't plan to own more than 10 pieces (don't quote me in umpteen years) so should be a nice box with a draw for cufflinks as well as a limited # of straps, bracelets or natos.

    I like the look, don't know the company or how well it's built. I always worry about a nice watch-box attracting the attention of someone who breaks in and is looking for an arrow pointing at the expensive goods to snatch. This will let them grab all 10 watches in one fell swoop and bolt out the window with them.

    My motto is "rocks and socks". i.e. put rocks in the watch box and watches in the socks drawer, and you should be safe.

    What a brilliant idea! I see those boxes all the time but they are much too small for my tools, but I love the boxes. Watch storage! Brilliant idea!

    Lots of ways of storing on this thread.

    From a technical perspective, is it best to store watches flat or curled? Face up or side up (and which side)? or does it not matter...

    I don't think it matters to have the watch face any way but I prefer to have them curled (on leather strap) since it makes the strap form better around the wrist.

    Can anybody point me in the direction of a two or three watch display box in the style of a Wolf Savoy?
    Something pretty classy looking
    Thanks

    In the process of setting my new larger dry box up. Not pretty or even expensive but a necessity when you live in the tropics.

    and the older smaller one will now become storage for straps and maybe some boxes and other spillover items.

    Same here, particularly the cushions, they are too small most of the time. i have large wrists (20cm) and they fall of the cushions, but i like them to be snug....

    Sorry if this is a noob question, but is this some kind of a temperature controlled unit? I live in a very hot/ arid country and have often thought if I need some kind of temperature controlled unit. Can you please elaborate on the brand/ specs etc. regards

    I did a short write up the other day. They are more for humidity control in a tropical environment but they do seem to also cool. Maybe a by product of dehumidifying.
    The ones I use are Eureka brand but there are plenty to choose from.

    write up post below:
