    Where would I get one? I seen some people with them and I'd like to have one.

    I may possibly make my one since I'm good in wood work, I could contruct somthing to my own taste. I would rather buy one though as I'm not housing super expensive time pieces.

    Thanks

    If you can hang on, wait until Lidl are selling tea boxes again. They're normally around a tenner and make great watch boxes. I'll try and get a better photo for you.

    Unless you change your watch very regularly then I dont see the point. Assuming you have the original box I would store each watch there.

    If you change it daily of a few times a week then I see the rational.

    If you've more than 2 or 3 watches, then the odds are that a watch box for them all will be smaller and look neater than having them in their original boxes.

    Let's see when lidl start selling them again hehe. Great idea actually. I have a few watches that I want to keep in one box. Dont really want to keep them all in their original boxes.

    Oh I understand that. My point is you retain the old boxes regardless so unless you change your watch on a daily basis I don't see the point on having them on display or storage all in the one box. Easily for a burgular also!

    i got that box from e-bay perfect for my watches the only thing i found was the cushions are very hard no give at all.
    im on the lookout for soft cushions.

    I second the Pelicase. i have one to hold 8 thats full & a currently empty one to hold 16 watches. Completely worth it.

    I used the Lidl boxes. I went and bought insulation pipes and cut them it to the correct width so they are wedged in. It looks very well.
