DHL man arrives =>

And we all now he's not as exciting or welcome as the FedEx man

Nevertheless this is what he brought me today. Ok, so it's not a Rolex but my current 10pc box is running out of space for my 2011 purchases so an additional box is needed for my Omegas

I absolutely love Wolf Desigs - superb quality at a decent price and the look and feel of their goods are great

As a side note, I ordered this weeks and weeks ago but DHL couldn't pick it up due to 'snow'. DHL is a complete farce, they claimed they couldn't pick it up in Surry, south of London because of bugger all snow!

enjoy friends

Hello Anders!! You are right, Ede Ex or mail boxes are always welcomed!

Its interior looks very luxuriously made.
A nice exterior picture showing it closed, and another with its interior full of watches would be nice to see!

Enjoy your new box, and fill it at full capacity very soon!!

Thank you for sharing and Best cordial regards, Abel.

I like the watch you have in there now. I wouldn't mind seeing a picture of the rest of your watches in there as well.

My mistake. I did not look closely at your photos. Winders not good for a watch ?

many thanks Abel it has taken me years to find a decent box - my other box is from the same company so same look and feel, but it's a 10pc and comes with a drawer for spare parts, cufflinks etc. both boxes are made of a solid wood construction, encased in a new supple pebble finish textured material and lined with a silver textured silk fabric. Comes with a sturdy see-through tempered glass lid and comes with a lock and key so i can over my collection

well, i have its older brother at home, this one, that holds 10. the plan is to shift the other brands into the 5pc box so the 10pc one becomes 'the Rolex Box'

Nice !

Does the new 5 piece box also have a lower compartment like the 10 box ?

Also could you forward me details on where you got it from please.
