Icon7 Suggestions for storage?

Thoroughly impressed by the collections posted in the recent "Watch collection in 1 photo only" thread. I was particularly delighted by your storage methods. Any suggestions on where to buy a display box for 8-12 watches? Thanks!

I've bought 2 different types of boxes on amazon. First one leather look alike cover, the 2nd box wood. Absolutely superb quality. 8 watches each and I could not be happier. Amazon I think is most economical way to go.

The choice will partly depend on what you're needs are. Since I keep my watches securely stored (i.e. not in view) I don't have a particular need for say burl wood and brass fittings. I'm more concerned with just the protection side of things. So something along the lines of a Pelican case or fire insulated strong box works nicely for me.

Some nice Rolex suede pouches and store them in bank safety deposit box.

Now if you are set on a watch box for display try Wolf. I hear watch thieves love the clear display as it saves them time.



But better in the bank safe than sorry!

Not sure yet. I'm thinking a display case would be nice, but the briefcase might be even better. Right now, I'm just looking at all the options.

If you want one that will store 10 watches, have a look at the Diplomat line up. Quite inexpensive and very good quality.

X2 Keep my watches there also. Very secure! Only have 1 or 2 expensive watches at any time at home. However my Seiko's do not reside in the safety deposit box.

Never thought about the Rolex pouches in the vault/deposit box. Yes, less vanity, more security, might best. Thanks all.
