They don’t work for Rolex on bracelets

They won’t work because the bracelet is attached to itself and I feel like it may get scratched if you just stick it into the pocket folded up.

OMG your collection! Those are quite nice. They are separate from one another and have a breathing space.

That makes sense. I think it works with vintage watches on straps, not bracelets. Thoughts?

They're great for taking watches along when you travel. At home I prefer to keep them in a slotted storage box.

You put a piece of cloth in between the bracelet and the watch case. And in all honestly those scratches are as small as the ones you put on your watch every day you wear it.

Flat watch rolls work great. As long as the pockets are deep enough that when you unroll them the watches do not fall out.

The flat ones don't work for my collection. I like the true leather tube style, but I find myself rarely bringing more that 2 watches anywhere.

Personally I don't find them very attractive.

Agree with most. I don’t have the soft roll because I only have Rolex’s on bracelets. I have the solid roll for 2 and it works good for travel. You don’t need more than 2 when traveling.
