I've been looking for storage options for my nice watches and wanted something simple, classy, and easy to pack if I'm traveling.

I decided on the 3 watch roll from the Time traveller.

The fit and finish of the roll is excellent throughout and just oozes quality. The watches fit on the pillow securely without putting much strain on the bands, unlike using the Rolex boxes after you've re-sized the bracelet. What I also like about this is that I can hide it very easily in a sock drawer or kitchen cabinet if I'm away

Anyway, here are some pictures:

Bottom line - if anyone is looking for a very nice watch roll do yourself a favor and check these out.

Looks great and what a fantastic collection you have to put in it as well!

That looks awesome!

SWISSAHOLICS · 14 May 2013, 08:02 AM

Very nice Tim....I may pick up one myself now that I see your pics!!

Looks good!

b06tmm · 14 May 2013, 08:06 AM

Thanks guys, I'm not a jewelry box kinda guy even though I bought an expensive one, I just want to get rid of it.

As for the collection, I had to have a Submariner (5-digit) - check. Pepsi GMT on Jubilee - check. Now the hard part, I wanted a white-faced Rolex and the choices were an Explorer II (5-digit), DJ, or a Milgauss. I chose the Milgauss, as I have the GMT Master and really love the lightning bolt second hand and orange markers on the Milguass.

Sweet!

Add a Speedy Pro, and you're done.

I have a 1960 Sea Master and a mid-size quartz one, and almost bought an Alaska Project Speedy a couple of times when they were up for sale here.

Very, very nice, but I have a question. If you're away aren't you supposed to take it with you?

Yes, and no. There are certain times where my Timex's will suffice and others where the Rolex is appropriate. if it's just hard work in the field I see no reason to bang up my Rolex's when I have the other.

Truth be told, I did reset the Submariner to take the pictures as it tends to run a little fast.

anothernewphone · 14 May 2013, 10:28 AM

Very nice! Great collection, too. Something like this would be great for an upcoming trip to Jamaica for a wedding.

HACKNSACK44 · 14 May 2013, 02:50 PM

Nice collection, Tim.

Hairdude1 · 14 May 2013, 03:40 PM

Very nice. Is the roll thick enough so you watches don't hit each other or is there some room?

JV588 · 14 May 2013, 03:54 PM

Nice case, awesome collection

You can see the room that I have to move the outer watches all of the way to the end, and alternately you rotate the watches like so:

Very nice. I like that it keeps the watches separated well.
