I used to bring at least 3 watches when traveling: a sport watch, dress watch and cheap beater.
But now I only bring one more watch, much easier , haha.
Watch boxes, travel cases and winders. What do you use?

·I’ve been waiting to see what other watch collectors use for pocket watch storage. Surely I am not the only watch collector that also collects pocket watches! I have two of these cases, both for storage, but also transport. They each hold 40 watches, although my second case is not yet full 🙁 These case are stored in a vault just as you see this one, and on occasions when the watches are put on exhibit, the cases are easy to transport, and the watches are safe.

I had a Wolf winder a while back when (when I was using winders). You can link them which is a nice feature. It was a quality item and I got a good price when I sold it on. They do make nice kit

·I cycle to work, and I use a Casebudi in my rucksack to transport either Omega. I really like them - simple but effective, and compact.
As a newcomer (who doesn't have any automatic watches), I'm constantly astonished at the price of watch winders, though. This seems like a function that could be accomplished for far less.

No worries. It was very quiet but you might be asking the wrong person. I hate any noise or light when sleeping so I have a zero tolerance / not the best benchmark. I had a timer which knocked off winders and any other friends electric from 11pm till 7am. Also it was on a shelf so not right next to me. I don't recall it was an issue.

·I have purchased a few vintage watches here on the forum ( Omega, Longines ) that did not include their original boxes.
Since I prefer to keep my watches in a place where I can see and enjoy them ( being retired and generally a sloppy dresser, I will never get to wear them as often as I would like ) I have started looking for vintage watch boxes that have been orphaned from their original contents.
Has the added benefit of slowing down my purchase of the vintage watches themselves
If anybody can point me towards good resources for attractive vintage watch boxes, that would be appreciated.
