I have everything inside a large Pelican case in the attic, not the watches but everything else including 1-10 Rolex magazines and some Rolex swag.

On a shelf in my closet. Attached mercury switch, along with some compound B. Under the shelf a sign reads "help yourself "

Just saying.....

I keep my boxes hidden. What do you guys think thieves are going to do if they find a pile of empty Rolex boxes in your closet during a home invasion ?

I do throw them in a safe but only because its fire rated and they are protected in case of house fire. If there wasn't room for them, I'd probably toss them in a closet.

Stacked on the top shelf of my bedroom closet. Papers and cards in the boxes. That's about it really.

Watches and papers in fault (external; so not at home), boxes at home in closet (topper shelf) because they don't fit in the safe.

+1. Same here, but perhaps I should put paperwork in the safe.
