Where do you put your Rolex when its off your wrist?

Do you put it straight back into the safe for the next day?
Or do you have a specific ornament or a watch display you guys use?

Pics would be great,

my routine would be take the watch off after wearing and set it down on a facecloth while it awaits another wearing or a trip to the save


So really whats your interim setup?

No safe for me. Just a simple watch case on the dresser with individual pockets for each watch. If a burglar ever entered my home they would hit the jackpot.

Watch box on th night stand. If I travel I put everything not on my wrist in the safe. I invest in a home security system and smith and wessons, so I'm not too worried about much... ;)

I have only two watches, so I put back the one I'm not wearing into its original box. The one I'm wearing is on the bedside table.
I sometimes wish I had a watch box but they usually come with 5 slots at least
and I am afraid seeing so many empty slots would urge me to purchase more watches.

Is the room filled with cameras and lasers to prevent burglars to break in like in spy movies?

I have a winder with storage in the the top compartment that sits on top of my dresser, they go in there. I have a home security system, a St. Bernard (who really doesn't like people other than us) and Mr's: Smith & Wesson in the nightstand as well.
