Case problem

I posted this over on the AP subforum but just realized it's likely more appropriate over here . The AP is 42mm for reference sake.

-------------------

Guys,
What do you do about storing your large watches? I've got an aluminum case that I use to carry my watches to/from the bank but it's not really designed for large 42mm+ watches. It's no problem for my <40mm. It also screams, "I'm carrying very valuable stuff. Steal me!" I looked at Scatola del Tempo last year but decided against the $1500USD... maybe I should revisit it? I need options! Can you recommend something portable?

It's definitely a killer looking case. No doubts there! I personally wouldn't drop my coin on one though. Scatola products aren't cheap, however I've never handled one.

Yeah, I thought about that William. I've got a few for my handguns. I'm just not comfortable walking into a bank with what looks like a gun case.

Yea , never thought of that,that might not be such a good idea

They do have laptop cases that can be modified & they have over the shoulder harnes strap to look like a back-pack of sorts

look @ these
