Just ordered the one @Larry S posted with some Amazon credit I had. Will also share thoughts when it arrives.

@Khamenman ... these boxes are just used to store, not travel. If I do travel with watches I use a leather roll that is much more secure.

How much is the one from HODINKEE going for?

I purchased a travel box from Howard @Optimizer13 and I truly love it, but it might be too expensive for your liking. You know what they say, you get what you pay for!

I like these . Could you post a link ... they seem to secure the watches very well.

Certainly nice for travel, but at 254 Euros seems expensive for the capacity. 😲

But that leather is soooooo purty. 🥰

I’ve got a saddleback leather bag for everyday carry (work computer) trying to convince them to make a watch roll or pouch .

More for storage and transporting watches. But could work for display as well. Not as fancy as some of the offerings, but they work for me.

I have a few different cases that I use for different occasion. This is the moon watch box converted to hold a few watches.

Nice box and collection!

I found one of these at Goodwill.

I put the watches I'm not wearing or working on in it in four layers separated by folded cloths.
I have another that I keep BP pistol shooting supplies in.

The watches I plan to rotate I keep close at hand in padded eyeglass cases, two or more in each case separated by thin packing foam.
Wrist bands, buckles, spring bars and movements and such I keep in stout cookie tins. The movements wrapped in plastic between discs of foam rubber in airgun pellet tins.

If I were in the market, I'd look for something like the one below because of how minimalistic it looks. I also like the fact that the watches will be resting on pillows.

Actually better price than I thought.

Thanks for the link, might be an option for me down the line.

Do any of you worry about the pillows stretching bracelets?
