I use the Omega service case or these $15 ones from eBay:

They come in larger sizes too but I would rarely travel with more than 3 watches.

I bought a few surplus Zenith service "cases" a few years ago, look somewhat similar to the Shockcase. They're perfect for storing watches when travelling.

I just use the one Omega sends you for free when you have your watch serviced. Nothing fancy but it does the job!

I had a custom watch roll made from my local leather crafter, who happens to be a friend too.

She did a fantastic job, and took it to Greece this summer 😀

There is this option here. I bought it recently for around 18€ on amazon. I used it twice and I think it does offer a lot of value for money and looks quite nice. It is from a local german manufacturer. It feels safe and sturdy and has slots for two watches.

I gotta say though, if one plans on putting bulky Panerais or just bulky watches in general, it might me too small.

I bought a $2 hard shelled eyeglass case from a dollar store.

You got ripped off...

I’ve had people ship in eyeglass holders. The watch case I currently use someone shipped a $100 Seiko in. Sold the seiko and kept the brown leather case 👍

The Omega service case and the Curio Supply Company watch roll work pretty well. 👍

I do like the red Omega travel case...but have never had one. I do use the Oakley travel case...great simple case.

Similiar to the Shockcase

I tend to use Omega service cases as well. Some recent purchases did get me thinking about how we balance quality, workmanship, functionality aesthetics, cost and the value of the brand. The price difference between these three cases is striking. Of course, the Omega case normally has a hard-outer case as well. Anyone want to guess what I paid (delivered UK) for each of these cases? They all do the job.
